Challenge course at Coetzenburg was fun, but challenging.\u00a0 I enjoyed the back and forth chase between the athletes.\u00a0 I struggled mostly with the grip obstacles.\u00a0 In preparation for this event I have been working on my grip.\u00a0 I\u2019ve also added some personal obstacle exercises to my martial arts training.\u00a0 I feel that the combination will give me the upper hand.\u00a0\u00a0 The IMPI Challenge is a good mental and physical test. \u00a0Taking part in obstacle course races has motivated me further to live a better life.\u00a0 My goal at the IMPI Challenge #1 is to obtain a podium position.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Diehard IMPI Challenge Warrior, Luigi Heynes (Bellville) will be back in action at the IMPI Challenge #1.\u00a0 \u201cI love the competitive, energetic atmosphere and exciting, challenging obstacles,\u201d says Heynes.\u00a0 \u201cI believe in being challenged by new things in order to grow whether it is mentally, physically or emotionally.\u00a0 The IMPI Challenge has always ensured that I learn new things about myself.\u00a0 Each time that I have participated in a race I have been forced to change my approach.\u00a0 My goal on event day will be to beat my previous finishing time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>EVENT INFORMATION<\/u><\/strong><strong>:\u00a0 <\/strong>IMPI Challenge #1<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:\u00a0
