Personal

Beveridge was born on 14 July 1986 in Gold Coast, Queensland.[2] He grew up in Mackay and was an avid sports fan taking part in cross county, swimming, water polo and hockey before waking up in 2003 at the age of 17 to discover he was completely paralysed from the chest down. He was later diagnosed with transverse myelitis, a neurological disorder causing inflammation to his spinal cord.[2]

Career

In 2012 after a short stay in hospital, Beveridge fell in love with paralympic sport. This led to Beveridge choosing to take up paratriathlon.[2] Beveridge competes in the PTWC (handcycle/racing wheelchair classification). He first started competing in 2013 making his international debut at the 2013 ITU World Championships in London finishing 17th in the Men's PT1.[2] Competing at the 2014 ITU World Championship Grand Final in Edmonton he finished 9th in the Men's PT1.[3] At the 2015 ITU World Championship Grand Final in Chicago he finished 9th in the Men's PT1.[2] At the 2016 Rotterdam ITU Paratriathlon World Championships in Rotterdam, he finished 11th in the Men's PT1.[3]

Beveridge is able to compete in triathlon by swimming using his upper body, riding with a recumbent handcycle and completing the run through the use of a racing wheelchair.[4]

Beveridge competed at the 2016 Rio Paralympics Games and placed ninth in Men's PT1 event. [5] Beveridge reflected on his performance in Rio throughout saying "It was the fittest I've ever been and I was happy with how it went." [6]

At the 2017 ITU World Championships in Rotterdam, Beveridge finished fourth in the Men's PTWC. It was his best ever international performance. [7]
