🚴🏃♂️🏊♂️ Humphreys Smashes Ironman Western Australia 🚴🏃♂️🏊♂️ South East Leisure lifeguard Thomas Humphreys has delivered an extraordinary performance at Ironman Western Australia, finishing as the first Australian in all age groups, claiming 1st place in his category (18-24), and securing 4th place overall with an impressive time of 08:48:51. Tom’s remarkable effort earned him a sought after qualification spot for the Ironman World Championships in September 2025 to be held in Nice, France. However, the financial demands of competing on the global stage mean he will need to secure partnerships to make this dream a reality. Undeterred, Tom has set his sights on the Port Macquarie Ironman on Sunday, May 4, where he plans to qualify for the World Championships once again. Tom is seeking sponsorships and partnerships to support his journey to the Ironman World Championships in Nice, France in September 25. If you’re interested in supporting Tom, please get in touch with South East Leisure via info@southeastleisure.com.au ✉️📲
