Suzy Wise, who works at South Hampshire College Group, triumphed in the hammer throw and weight throw events at the championships in Florida.
She also secured a silver medal in the discus throw.
Suzy represented Great Britain in the 35 to 39 age category, competing against athletes from Australia, the USA, and the UK.
Suzy said: “I love competing and was really happy with my performance at the championships, where I truly gave it my all.
“These events not only provide me with the opportunity to test myself on the global stage but also give me the chance to travel and explore different parts of the world.
“I believe it’s really important to maintain your passions outside of work and these kinds of successes really make all the hard work pay off.”
Suzy has been competing in athletics since the age of 14 and has achieved significant success in county championships.
In recent years, she has made her mark on the international stage, winning silver and bronze medals at the 2024 European Masters Athletics Championships.

She is also a qualified coach and divides her spare time between training, competing, and coaching.
Suzy added: “I suppose I started quite late in my athletics journey compared to others, but discovered a solid community at Luton Athletics Club, which helped instil a lifetime passion for the throwing sports.
“I’ve been able to dedicate more time to training as I’ve got older, which has helped me get stronger and fitter as a result.
“As long as I’m able and still enjoying it, I think I will always continue to be involved in athletics in one way or another, whether it’s competing or coaching others.”
Jodie Taylor, group culture and engagement lead at South Hampshire College Group, said: “Suzy truly embodies one of our core values ‘aspirational’ and we wish her the best of luck in her upcoming competitions.”
Suzy is now preparing for the 2025 European Masters Athletics Championships in October and the 2026 World Masters Athletics Championships next summer.
