Window Shop + Walk
Published
Ever tried mall walking? Since the weather isn’t always conducive to outdoor exercise in the winter, it’s a great time to find an indoor mall and walk a few laps.
Mall walking is a beloved activity by thousands of people of all ages, and for good reason. This activity is:
Consider putting on your workout clothes and walking shoes, grab a bottle of water, and head to an indoor mall near you. Spend at least 30 minutes walking brisk laps around the interior. See how many laps you can do in that time. Use an app on your smartphone or smartwatch to track your distance and calories. Good luck!
