GENERAL INFORMATION
Several years ago, John Figarelli found that little was being done to recognize and remember the efforts that so many have made promoting heath and fitness to the American public. The National Fitness Hall of Fame (NFHOF) was founded on December 2nd, 2004 to provide a both physical and virtual place, where the lifelong efforts of individuals and organizations are acknowledged and showcased.
Mission: To educate, motivate and inspire individuals to “Get Fit & Stay Healthy” through the practice of regular exercise and healthy lifestyle practices by providing contests, events, publications and activities that encourage them to do so.
Motto: "Educate * Motivate * Inspire"
