Because ALS is curable; it’s just underfunded.
Augie’s Quest was co-founded in 2005 by Augie Nieto, the successful fitness industry mogul behind Lifecycle and Life Fitness who was diagnosed with ALS in 2005. A visionary leader dedicated to maintaining muscle strength, fitness and performance, Augie made his career building successful global businesses and driving modern day fitness forward, impacting millions of people. Today, Augie’s inexorable drive to work and achieve remains steadfast, turning his focus and business acumen on ALS, taking on the disease like no other. With Augie’s Quest, Augie and his wife, Lynne, are transforming the way ALS research is funded, approaching it in completely new, unprecedented ways. Most important, we’re seeing real results!
