Fit 4 Life is emerging as an employee wellness program through Planetree

Welcome to Enloe Medical Center’s Fit 4 Life Club. We began as a multi-sport club in 2006 and are now re-emerging as a wellness program for Enloe employees, physicians, board members, volunteers and donors to the Enloe Foundation, as well as the immediate family of these individuals.

Fit 4 Life is for people of all levels of fitness, from the currently inactive to the social fitness walker to the most competitive racer. We hope to serve as a resource for people interested in pursuing a healthy lifestyle. We chose the name Fit 4 Life because we hope this club will motivate you to be “fit for life.” We will keep this web page updated with information and tips. See you on the road, trail, track, in the pool, at the gym – or at Enloe!
