14 days to Kinabalu!

I’m so excited about what is going to happen in the next few weeks! In 14 days time, I will be in Sabah and standing on the peak of Southeast Asia! Heh!

The few of us met up yesterday to discuss stuff with regard to the trek. There are a couple of things I am yet to invest in… and I guess I will be investing in a pair of trekking boots, since I will really be going trekking quite often. I have highlighted the importance of having good footwear before.

Will be going shopping tomorrow for those boots! And that’s more motivation to trek more when I do!

I haven’t been training or running really regularly to get myself ready for the trek, but I still do exercise in my irregular schedule, running for about 30 mins at least twice a week. Well, I better increase the frequency during the coming 14 days. I realised why I am less motivated to run! Its because my MP3 player is spoilt! I used to play a very fast paced music and just use the beats of the music to pace me a while ago, but since the player was spoilt, I had never used any music, and I think without something to occupy your mind during the run, your mind will just wander and think of yourself being tired. Must go and get an MP3 player again soon.

Apart from that, I still need to get things like my waterproof (zip lock) bags, exchange some currency, get some high fiber energy food, and that’s about it! So very excited! Its a pity that my camera is a little bonkers now, but I will be bringing it up anyway. I have 2GBs of space of my memory card, even if half the photos turn out not as good as expected, I can still have 1GB of photos Good strategy right!
