mrs hell tells me people drive to the mall to walk around it. in running shoes and sweat pants. for exercise.
IME of living in the US the sedentary lifestyles are roughly the same as the UK, it just looks vastly different due to the lack of pedestrian infrastructure (or good public transport) in many cities in the US so they all get concentrated in the few public places you see them (e.g. shopping malls).
I got very odd looks from coworkers for walking between offices (4 or 5 miles), or running/cycling to work (4 miles) when I lived/worked in Overland Park, KS. Why would I do that rather than drive to work and then to the gym? It just added to the eccentric Englishman schtick that I failed to pull off very well.
