Ty Manegold is the founder and president of ROAM Fitness, a fitness club in airport terminals. We love to spotlight entrepreneurship at TPN, and Ty is also a private pilot himself who has been flying for 15 years. In this episode, Ty and Matt discuss the vision and future plans of ROAM Fitness, what it is like to bring a fresh new idea to airports, a place where there are a lot of regulations and rules, and why airports are a perfect place for fitness centers.
Ty is using his inventive mind and unique vision to transform airports for the better, so for passengers and flight crew, layovers don’t have to be just about sitting around and eating a 3,000 calorie meal. Listen to get inspired by someone who is changing the industry for the better.
