LESSON 15
Mall walking

If you think that shopping has long been America's favourite sport, you are wrong - mall walking is the latest exercise craze.

Here I am, in front of the Mall of America, the largest shopping mall in the States. I'm wearing shorts and a T-shirt and I've got my walking boots on.

There are hundreds of people like me here - all raring to go. It's seven o 'clock in the morning and we're waiting for the shops to open. Why?

Because we're about to take part in the fastest growing fitness movement in the States!Mall walking!

Yes, as you trek up and down the floors of shops here, you have breathtaking views of GAP and MacDonald's in front of you.

The air is clean and a rest room is never too far away.You won't catch a glimpse of green grass; true - but you won't get your shoes dirty either.

Oh, and by the way, you can window shop, as you mall-walk.
