Before climbing Mt Kinabalu

Posted by Wayne (Melbourne, Australia) on 26 August 2007 in People & Portraits.

Decided to dig up some old photos from last year (its funny how quickly do things turn from new and wonderful to old and blase). This was taken for me with my guide (its compulsory to hire a local guide...ostensibly for safety and legal liability reasons). While I didn't make it up and down the mountain in 2.5 hrs like the current world record holders, I did make the ascent in 4hrs hard pace and on my descent I literally ran all the way down the mountain to make a time of 2 hours on the dot. (I was rushing to catch a cab and a flight to Brunei) Not bad for a guy with a pair of bum knees if I do say so myself =)

Anyway...back to my legal ethics (an oxymoron if there ever was one) assignment.
