Mount Kinabalu

Assalamualaikum and salam ramadhan,
on my previous posts i already mentioned that i went for mount climbing at Mount Kinabalu. And today after few months i would like to share the story of Mount Kinabalu. Mount Kinabalu is situated at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah which is in East Malaysia. Sabah and Sarawak is situated in Borneo Island in which shared its borders with Kalimantan,Indonesia. Since past two years i always wanted to climb Mount Kinabalu. I really love adventurous activities and i always love the challenge. Only on March 2013 my father offered to sponsor my hiking at mount kinabalu. I went to Kinabalu with my father's friend which was under his office recreational club. My father already went there twice. To be honest i don't prepare much especially in terms of fitness. Due to heavy works and not enough time i only managed to do some exercise on a treadmill a week before i went for hiking. I am scared if i don't fit to go for hiking but alhamdulillah i managed to reach the peak. On my way up to the peak i have lots of mental disturbance. At one point i want to give up as i am afraid i won't be able to reach the peak on time. I can see that most of 'mat saleh' they are very tough and they can easily reach the peak faster than me. Maybe it is not our culture to make hiking as our hobbies.  But alhamdulillah my word of advise is that never go alone when u go for hiking as i believe hiking is based on team spirit. U need buddies to give u moral support so that u won't easily give up. When i reached the peak, the weather was so cold and u need to have extra layers of cloths. Better to have lots of chocolates as when u are up above the mount u will need lots of energy. The higher u climb the lesser of oxygen u have so at that moment u will feel too tired and u can only walked one or two steps and u feel tired. But alhamdulillah i reached the peak!!
