Trump revives Presidential Physical Fitness Award for U.S. schools

—
The award is tied to the Presidential Fitness Test, which was a public-school fixture for decades but was phased out under President Barack Obama in favor of a program that minimized competition and focused on long-term health.
Trump signed an order last summer to reestablish the fitness test, which was created in the 1950s.
