Augie's 'Newest' Quest
The founder of Life Fitness is applying his skills and time to finding a cure for ALS
 Augie Nieto's energy is legendary in the fitness industry as the founder and retired chief executive of Life Fitness. Lean, muscular, and deeply tanned, he moves with the loose, easy strides of an athlete. There is an aura about him, a feeling of peace and purpose, like he's traveling somewhere at the speed of light but taking his time along the way. He talks about his four children, three of whom are in college, and one who is a junior in high school. They are clearly a source of deep pride and inspiration in his life. 'It's all about passion,' he says of their varied interests, which range from social justice, to pre-med, to elementary school education, to crew and football. 'Passion is the engine that drives success.'
And those two words - passion and success - epitomize the journey of Augie Nieto as he now battles ALS. Read more of Augie's newest quest.
