Anytime Fitness

Anytime Fitness is an American franchise of 24-hour health and fitness clubs founded in 2002 by Chuck Runyon, Dave Mortensen, and Jeff Klinger.
==History==
Runyon, Mortensen, and Klinger first met in the early 1990s while working for a fitness club in St. Paul, Minnesota. In 1995, they jointly purchased and ran Southview Athletic Club. During their ownership of the club, its membership rose from 500 to 4000. They sold the gym in 2001. During their ownership of Southview Athletic Club, they worked for a consulting firm focused on improving under-performing athletic clubs across the United States. They soon developed the idea for Anytime Fitness. Runyon, Mortensen, and Klinger founded Anytime Fitness in 2002.
The first franchise location opened in Cambridge, Minnesota in 2002. They chose the site because of the lack of other fitness clubs in the immediate area and a population large enough to support a fitness club. Shortly after, two more locations were opened by former Southview Athletic Club employees in other Minnesota cities. They sold 29 franchises before they opened their own corporate-owned location in Bemidji, Minnesota.
In 2011, Anytime Fitness expanded into Qatar, Poland and the Netherlands. By 2012, the franchise had opened locations in several other countries.
