Long layover or just got off a red-eye? Try a workout at the airport gym
Work out while waiting for your flight? That's an option now at Baltimore Washington International Airport, where the only gym at a US airport past security opened this week with plans to open 20 more at airports by 2020.
It's the latest example of how fitness and health trends have started showing up at airports. Yoga rooms and walking tracks have opened at airports around North America over the past few years, and healthier food options are also easier to find in airports now. You can even get a kombucha to wash down a salad made with locally sourced produce.
The ROAM Fitness gym at BWI includes an attendant who monitors guests' flights and will alert them if there's a delay. There's even free luggage storage, options for renting workout clothes and shoes, and showers. Fees range from $40 a day to $175 a month.
