outdoor sportMany people live in areas where outdoor sport is a big thing in the winter.  There are many outdoor sports to be played when there is snow on the ground or ice on the ground.  Ice skating is a lot of fun after the lakes have frozen over.  Skating can also be done if there is no ice, and a person goes to an ice skating rink.  When there is snow on the ground, downhill skiing can be tons of fun.  There is also snow boarding, sledding and many other possibilities.  Kids especially love to play in the snow and ice during the winter.  They build snowmen, make snow angels and have snowball fights.  I know these are not true outdoor sports, but the kids love it and the adults usually end up in the midst of the fun as well.  Winter can be fun, although cold, and these sports are great for keeping in shape during the cold months.  I live in Florida, where there isn't any winter sports to be played, and I'm just fine with that because I stay warm most of the year.
