Liesl Schoonraad, Ambassador for Strong4Life and a Guest Speaker at one of our Succes in High Heels Cocktail Evening will be lifting 67 tons/148 000 lbs on 18th July for Mandela Day What are you going?

Says Liesl, "Allow me to "lift" you out of your comfort zone and challenge you to put a smile on someone else's face!As a 43 year old woman I will be lifting a total of 67 tons in 67 minutes doing only calf presses. A record event as far as I know. Madiba Day, 18 July 2014, starting 2 pm at the Virgin Active Gym in Table View the calf presses will start and I hope to finish in WAY less time than 67 minutes.

WHY would I put my body through this torture? I hope the event will encourage people to do random acts of kindness for others. Be the change we want to see in the world.

To give hope to those finding themselves in struggling circumstances, proving the impossible is possible as long as we believe, and through Christ anything and everything is possible.

HOW WILL YOU BE SPENDING YOUR 67 MINUTES?

We are always stronger than we think, but we only know how strong we are when a situation comes along testing that strength. To all the kids at the schools I have been speaking at, who challenged me to do yet another event, here you go!".
