Preparation for Mount Kinabalu Climb - Part I (started 4 months ago - 10 Jan 2008)

Booked our tour pack and tickets for Mt Kinabalu climb 6 months ago as the resting place of Laban Rata up on the Mountain is known for its "popularity" and its always full daily ... so we really need to plan way ahead ..... after the planning and bookings and everything, we need to look into each of our own physically ability and stamina .... for a start, went for training up and down the stairs of Batu Caves (favourite training ground for people who wishes to go for Mt Kinabalu climb) .... its definately a good foundation for us to built upon !
For a start I went up and down the stairs of Batu Caves 10 times .... still survived it ... so that should be a very good start ..... tiring but still good !
Batu Caves main cave entrance
Never noticed that the view from inside the caves are not too bad too !
The steps leading up and down Batu caves and these were the stpes that I went up and down 10 times ..... about near to 1500 steps one way (if not mistaken !!!!!)
The magnificent Indian god statute outside Batu Caves ... hope that it can gives us strength for our climb in 4 months time :)
