Bio
Born and raised in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Naomi Scott developed a passion for surf lifesaving at a very young age. She began with nippers in under-7s and has been enjoying herself in the ocean ever since. A standout moment came in the 2017 Elite IronWoman Series, where she not only qualified as a 17-year-old but also won the third round. Scott is now coming off her most successful season yet in 2024/25, when she claimed the World Ironwoman title, Shaw and Partners World Ocean Series Title which included winning the Manly and Northcliffe rounds, and finished her season winning the Open Australian Board Race title. Outside of her intense training schedule, Naomi has graduated from The University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Commerce, and is now pursuing a career in healthcare, having recently completed an accelerated Bachelor of Paramedicine degree. She enjoys pottery, cooking, and reading to unwind, and is a very big Swiftie.
Naomi, which race format is your favourite?
Specialist (although would prefer if the run leg was on hard sand!)
What is your best training hack?
Fuel yourself before you train! Find a pre training snack that works best for you, you’ll get so much more out of your sessions 🙂
What is the best piece of advice that you have ever been given?
“Stay in the moment”
Being present is so important, not just in racing but in life. Remember to take a moment to stop and smell the roses!
What is your favourite Iron Series memory?
Winning a round in my first series as a 17 year old was pretty special. That moment was when I felt like I’d “made it” and really deserved to be there racing the top girls.
