five hours trek
February 29th, 2008
It was a tiring 5 hour trek. We started from Bukit Timah Hill at about 9am and ended at the MacRitchie Reservoir at about 3pm including an hour for rest and refreshments. We wanted to simulate the feeling of walking hours without end but could not replicate the upward incline of Mt Kinabalu. At the end of it we were all bushed; we took off our shoes at the canteen, and the iced sprite tasted heavenly. At home, it was the bath and the bed! Enjoy the pics (click for pop-ups; rest cursor for titles)!

most people are getting panicky abt it over here.
You guys really seriously training. Great. Try doing the stairs as preparation. Going up and down is excellent preparations for this. Even 5mins in the morn and 5 mins in the evening, building up to 20 mins morn and evening makes a big difference…. I did and it helped A LOT!
Thanks for the tip.
