COT
Alastair Humphreys has written a book titled “Micro Adventures”
Most of us can’t afford the time or cost to take a large adventure – like hiking the Appalachian trail – but we can find time for micro adventures.

– A microadventure is an adventure that is short, simple, local, cheap – yet still fun, exciting, challenging, refreshing and rewarding.

– Do them with your family
• Camp in your backyard
• Visit as many monuments as you can in 1 day (be sure to take a POL at each one) • Train together for a 5k, or 10k or half or whole marathon – F3 CSAUPs
• AMBAB
