Adventure Seekers Transform into IMPI Warriors at the Van Gaalen Kaasmakerij

Adventure seekers faced their fears in emphatic style at the IMPI Challenge #2 at the Van Gaalen Kaasmakerij (North West Province) on Saturday, 2 November 2019.

A trail run with a twist, IMPI Warriors could choose between four categories when entering the IMPI Challenge: 1. IMPI Corporate, 2. IMPI Challenge, 3. IMPI Dash and 4. IMPI Mini.

The IMPI “Competitive” Challenge race was won by Danel du Plessis from Potchefstroom.

According to du Plessis, she only started taking part in obstacle course races a few months ago.  “I just went out to see what I could do,” says du Plessis.

“I started with a fellow athlete from DC Tigers.  When I got my rhythm, I decided to push it.  After each obstacle I started to enjoy it more and went all out.  Finishing first gave me that extra boost and proved that I am capable and can do it again in the future.

“I’d definitely recommend this event to other athletes.  It challenges you as a person.”  Du Plessis completed the IMPI Competitive Challenge in a time of 01 hour 15 minutes 36 seconds.  Cindy Wills came in second, while Welmari Cousins finished third.

The IMPI “Competitive” Dash Women’s Race was won by Angela Nucci.  Sara Vita-Jansen came in second, while Ashley Turner finished third.
