Any Time Is The Right Time Mall walking has gained attention in almost every community. Some working people, however may feel they aren't candidates for this kind of walking because they can't be there during early morning hours. Forget that idea.
Many walkers schedule their exercise for other times of the day.
The National Organization of Mall Walkers says its membership is growing fast. It's immune from stormy weather, and it has no icy sidewalks, pollen-filled air, hills or gutters. Once promoted as the older person's easiest path to fitness, mall walking is attracting persons of all ages. In groups or alone, they traverse the long halls at their own pace and in their own style. Dr. Margaret Hill, professor of sociology at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. says today's malls are also a socializing place, a substitute for communities of the past.
