hiking at tiger mountain

I did what I never thought I could. I hiked a mountain! The info about the hike is here, or you can read my previous post, I copied and pasted the article there.

So, if I had known what I was going for, I'm not so sure I would have agreed to it that easily ^.~ If it was not for all the support from everyone else, I would not have made it to the top. Of course, a special thanks to Gene, who pushed and pulled me about half of the hike up. It looked pretty silly, I bet, him holding my sweater with me being pulled slowly. I was so tired, I was beyond tired, and my body was just pushed to its limits. I could hear my heart pounding in my head. I'm so out of shape, it's sad :p

We finally made it to the top! Not the peak perhaps, but it was good enough for me! The view was pretty. I'll post the pictures when I get them. I didn't have the strength to take pics. I had to conserve energy for breathing :p Besides, my batteries were dead after I took a couple scenery pics at the top. Can't wait to see the pics from Jinsun and Sharon.

On our way down, it was so much easier. I don't know if it's because I was too tired to be tired, or if going down is that much easier for me. I'm definitely motivated to get in shape now! :) Hopefully the next time I hike Tiger Mountain (yes, I'd like to go back and do it again!) I can do it on my own, without being pushed or pulled ^.~
