Get ready for an evening with the incredible Liam Twomey, a true Aussie legend in the world of Paralympic triathlon. Picture this: at the tender age of seven, Liam was thrown a curveball with a cancer diagnosis that led to him waving goodbye to his right leg below the knee. Instead of letting that bring him down, he found himself trapped in a not-so-glamorous cycle of drugs and alcohol during his teenage years. Spoiler alert: it wasn't exactly the path to success.

But don't worry, this story has a happy ending. At 21, Liam kicked the bad habits to the curb and devoted himself to getting his mental and physical game back on track. Fast forward to last year, and he was strutting his stuff at the 2024 Paris Paralympics, showing the world what resilience looks like. Whether you're a young adult or just a young-at-heart type, come see Liam share his journey filled with ups, downs, and plenty of perseverance. Free to attend and definitely worth it, just swing by the Alexandra Park Pavilion in Mornington on 11 February 2025 from 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM.
