Do you go to the HUGE REGIONAL SHOPPING MALLS just to walk around?
During the winter I use to get so restless when it was to cold to walk around out side. I use to go to the local shopping malls to walk and people watch. I would always see the same people over and over at the mall.
I told some friends I was going to the Mall just to walk around and they thought I was crazy. They would only go to the Mall if they wanted to buy something. How about you?

Do it all the time in the winter. If the weather's too bad it ends up being the local grocery store or walmart.

I used to manage a Bombay store and found that it was VERY common for people to do what your saying. In fact the mall I worked in would open early and the mall walkers would come in before the stores opened.
It makes sense to me if you live in an area where its too cold to walk outside.
I used to get that pent up feeling when I lived in a colder climate.

Actually, now that you mention it, my friend and I used to take our lunch break to walk around the mall after we ate. That was our cardio for the day at that time.

I used to love to go to the malls and shop and walk around. Even if I was only going for one thing, I would walk in almost every store.

I live in Virginia so its not really too cold in the winter. We have a lot of outdoor malls near Richmond. The biggest one is Short Pump Town Center. I walk around there. Not to people watch. Just for fresh air and exercise. |
