Fact: Winter does not mean hibernation. Sure, the bears and squirrels do it, but they don’t have anything better to do than collect nuts, hunt salmon and sleep. On the other hand, we have adventures to tackle. So get active! Instead of cursing the cold and snow, embrace it. Get out to the multiple festivals happening this season. Experience ice as art at the Rockford and Holland ice festivals and enjoy all things winter at Grand Haven’s Winterfest, where you can participate in the Intergalactic Human Sled Race. Better yet, spice up your New Year’s fitness resolution and find ways to incorporate fun into your workout, such as ice skating, luge lessons, downhill and cross country skiing and participating in one of two adventure races this winter. Much better than hibernating, right?
