🌸 Strong. Nurturing. Unstoppable.
Local women athletes in George are rewriting the trail‑running story—and IV Fusion’s here to fuel the following generation of women who push limits.
Trail heroines we’re celebrating:
• Gaelyn Slabber - Postma & Gillian Lupton-Smith two lifelong running buddies from George, recently ‘everested’ George Peak—8 ascents in 34 hours, no sleep—to raise awareness for Wild Mongoo’s empowerment work. Their grit raised R100K for local women in need.
• Rebecca Kohne, hometown hero, smashed the field to win the MUT Marathon 2025, ten minutes under her PB and after only a year in competitive trail marathons.
• Nicolette Griffioen shattered records to win the MUT Miler 2025, setting a new women’s benchmark in under 27 hours.
You’re that type of woman.
• Lodelia Kombrink, after over a year of training, stepped up from MUT 60 to tackle the full 100 mile Miler in 28:51:09—and crossed the line second fastest woman, even after battling a relentless tummy bug for days, managing only potatoes and liquids.
• Colleen Browne — left corporate life to coach & guide, smashed UTMB 2024, and is gearing up to compete in the legendary Tor des Géants in the Italian Alps 🇮🇹 in September.
Whether you’re balancing motherhood, business, or long days at work—these stories matter because they began in George, and they surge on local trails that demand true energy and recovery.
