Normal commuting expenses (mileage, tolls, parking, fares, etc) to/from your residence and normal work location ARE NOT deductible expenses, regardless of distance or time.

I am a personal trainer that is a part-time W2 employee for several recreation centers that I drive between throughout the day. Is any of my travel between facilities deductible?

As a W-2 employee you cannot deduct any employee business expenses on a federal tax return due to the tax code changes for tax years 2018 thru 2025.
