 Ate too much? Shopped too much? Entertained too much? Be sure to make time for some fun exercise after the holiday. Walk or ride a bike on the trails, play a round of golf or a game of tennis, or toss around a Frisbee. Ice skate, swim indoors, or play outdoors at a playground. Use the weights and exercise equipment in a fitness room or play catch in a local park.
