In this Micro Adventure I go urban hiking in the dog and bike friendly city of Florence, Alabama.
Florence is a college town home to the University of North Alabama.
I once lived in Florence and it continues to be one of the best towns for restaurants that I’ve ever lived in. One of note is Ricatoni’s Italian Grill.

In this “all things tony j” Micro Adventure I travel to the beautifully renovated Downtown Huntsville.
A lot has been done to make this downtown area a super awesome place. If you haven’t visited this city it really is a great southern city.
There is a lot of outside seating for most of the restaurants. The restaurants range from high end cuisine to delicious pizza. There is also a wonderful downtown pond in the middle of an awesome park.

It was another beautiful sunny morning when I decided to go for another Urban Hike!
This micro adventure would take me to the home of Helen Keller, Tuscumbia, Alabama.
Another awesome southern town with a character all it’s own.

In this micro adventure I travel to the beautiful city of Decatur, Alabama, for a day of Urban Hiking.
Decatur’s downtown has been experiencing a resurgence of activity and growth. It’s always super clean, safe and just a cool place to hang out.

Urban Hiking isn’t new. It’s been around for a while. But the odds are it’s new to you. Urban Hiking is a micro adventure where you explore your town or city on foot.
I recently did an urban hike around Athens, Alabama, an awesome Southern city with that Southern charm. From the business district to the homes this city is an awesome hike.

In this micro adventure I actually find the 312 foot ship!
Here is what ULA has to about their rocketship…
The R/S Rocketship, as it’s now called, is a 312-foot vessel designed specially to transport boosters and other large rocket components from Decatur to launch sites 8,000 miles away in California and nearly 1,700 miles distant in Florida.

In this micro adventure on I go in search of a mysterious ship on the Tennessee River that I found last year. This ship was so big it had no business being on a river. So last week I decided to get to the bottom of it. If I can find it again I’ll get it’s name and research why it was mysteriously tucked away in it’s own HUGE dock.

Did I finish my quest to race 100 miles in less than 48 hours? What did Merrill’s Mile look like? What problems did I face?
The crazy goal of attempting to race 100 miles is to receive the coveted belt buckles. Buckles are a tradition to receive when you cross the finish line after completing 100 miles.
In Ep-6 of Running for 48 Hours I’ll reveal how things went at Merrill’s Mile Ultra Endurance Race and my Top 3 Race Fails on allthingstonyj YouTube! I’ll reveal if I was able to meet my 100 plus mile goal and more.

I’m a goal setting type person. Goals help motivate me to do and be my best. This become uber important for me when it comes to ultra marathons like a 48 hour event.
Remember, micro adventures can be of a personal and/or physical nature!
