Start getting your steps in at one of Peoria’s most iconic landmarks!  Get out and get healthy right here in the heart of Peoria.  

With national guidelines recommending at least 2.5 hours of aerobic activity a week, a brisk walk through Metro Centre will get you on your way.  

Two laps around and you have a mile! There are plenty of stops to take a break and grab a healthy drink/snack along the way.  We are feeling “Fab at Fifty” this milestone year in Peoria and you can too!

Have Fun While You Walk

Walk with a friend!

Meet up with a friend at Metro Centre!  You will be able to check out all of our renovations and reminisce of days gone by at Metro Centre.

Window shop!

It’s a great way to see what all our merchants have to offer.  You won’t miss out on any great deals!

Make plans for after you walk!

Get moving and reward yourself at the end with a treat-juices, smoothies, lunch, or some chocolates!

Set personal goals!

Set a goal for yourself and increase as you go along.  Treat yourself to something you saw while window shopping as you reach your goals.


 Things To Consider Before Starting a Walking Program

  • Consult your physician before starting a regular exercise program.

  • Select comfortable shoes that are made for walking on hard services.  Holmes Shoes right here in Metro Centre can help you find what you are looking for!

  • Always carry a form of personal identification on you in case of injury.
