Day 6 – The Northlands Mall Crawl

6 January 2012

Yes, I know I said I was going to do a workout on the Gyroboard on Day 6, however, this didn’t happen! Instead I did a Friday night Northlands Mall Crawl.

For me, a Mall Crawl involves walking as fast as possible from one end of the mall to the other, and back again, without stopping to explore shops. Usually this works well. I’ve reached that stage in life where retail therapy is pointless because a) I seem to have everything I need and b) the budget doesn’t stretch to impulse buys at the moment.

I was doing really well until I discovered that Glassons has either moved or disappeared. In it’s place was an intriguing looking shop called Pongo, with paintings, outdoor furniture, giftware and other interesting items. So I stopped off and ended up talking with the owner, Andrew Rollings. You can learn more about this shop and our conversation HERE.

After that, I continued my walk, and then went into Countdown Supermarket to do some hunting and gathering. Whilst this isn’t ideal fun core training, it certainly had me being rather active for a good couple of hours! I also timed my exit from the mall quite nicely, as once I reached my car my cell phone started buzzing with texts from people wanting to know if I was okay. Huh?

It didn’t take me long to discover we’d had a 4.8M aftershock which I’d missed! Pheweee. I haven’t experienced one of those during a Northlands Mall Crawl, nor do I want to!

Tomorrow, I promise I will do a Gyroboard routine and tell you where you can purchase this fun core training equipment.
