INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. Instead of sitting at home doing nothing during the pandemic, one Incline Village man decided to get out and be active for a good cause.
Parker Fontecchio, an Incline High School graduate, was an avid Spartan competitor so when the races got canceled, he was disappointed. He continued to work and a friend suggested that he would put on his own event.
So, he partnered with FitOps Foundation and started the 72 project.
FitOps equips veterans who are passionate about fitness, health, and wellness to find success after the military.
