Food Court 5000: Retro Mall Walking
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Join the Food Court 5000, Portland’s quirkiest fitness phenomenon, for a weekly dose of mall walking, cardio, community, and pure retro joy. Every Sunday at 11 a.m., gather in the Lloyd Center Food Court and strut your way through the mall to a soundtrack of vintage jams, bold outfits, and unapologetic weirdness. This isn’t your grandmother’s mall walking group (but she’s definitely invited).
As Seen On: PEOPLE • TODAY.com • Woman’s World • The Oregonian • OPB • KOIN • Willamette Week
Led by local legend Vera Mysteria, these walks are free and open to all ages, abilities, and species. With participants from 8 months (ok, they can’t actually walk, but they still count) to 80+. Retro ’80s/’90s costumes encouraged, laughter guaranteed, judgment never allowed. Whether you’re here for the steps or the sequins, there’s a place for you in the mischief—that’s the technical term for a group of rats…Mall Rats.
Let’s get weird, get moving, and keep the Lloyd Center fabulous.
