Day 7: Doin’ it in style

Give me an E… E!

Give me a V…V!

Give me an A …A!

What does it spell?

It spells Eva—the raize the roof member who is taking it for the team today. She’s got the challenge baton and she’s running with it… literally!

As a child, Eva loved nothing more than running around the house, singing, dancing and making film clips. At age 11 she even made up a song; ‘Go Go’. It didn’t really ‘go’, and sadly never made it to Video Hits.

As a teenager, Eva’s love for all things RnB really flourished. Enter the Usher addiction.

But it was Eva’s love of fashion and trend setting that is of greatest note. Her fashion favourite was none other than wearing ankle socks. White ankle socks with Adidas masseurs (more accurately known as Adidas Adissage Massage slides).

Oh. These are not Eva’s feet. This is Larry Long Foot. I think he needs a slightly bigger pair of these bad boys!

Achieving this fashion statement was risky business. School teachers weren’t quite as fashion forward as Eva and she was forever in trouble for breaching school uniform rules. But she was committed to the cause; rain, hail or shine.

Eva also loved rocking the Kappa snap pants – the shinier the better. There was no stopping her…then or now.

Rocking the sporty look, soon blossomed into a love of exercise and a continued love of food. Here’s what you should also know about Eva.

Favourite gym exercise: Weights. We don’t call her Arnie for nothing.

Most hated (and avoided) exercise: RPM

Favourite food: sugar. Succulent, sweet, delicious sugar.

Most highly desired sugary treat: white chocolate raspberry bullets. Oh, and hazelnut chocolate.

But what Eva loves more than anything is supporting and empowering others. So she’s ‘hardening up’ and taking on our 30 days: 30 ways to change challenge.

The challenge:

From 8 July 2014 until 8 August 2014, Eva’s giving up the sugary goodness, hitting the deck, exercising daily and committing to the project – balls and all.

The cost:

As a token of gratitude for her sugar withdrawals, Eva is encouraging her friends, family and fellow sugar craving and lounge loving pals to purchase 100 bags of cement—if she has to harden up, maybe our raize the roof charity house concrete will too!

She’s also ridiculously keen for her supporters to help her ‘eat her way out of the challenge’ by purchasing free passes so she can have an exercise and no-sugar free day.

Otherwise (and she doesn’t know this!) if more than $100 is donated to the cause… no donation less than $100 will enable her to have a day off!

Let’s keep this lady off the sugar, off the couch and out of snap pants and socks and masseurs.
