There is something surreal and meditative about hiking by yourself. Usually 1000 steps is peppered by people of all ages but depending on your fitness level sometimes you will find yourself alone until the next bend. Good time to contemplate meaning of life or why are you doing this or why didn't you have breakfast this morning beforehand or should you go another round... all perfectly logical thoughts
Today I was in such a good form I went through the circuit twice. Some people were quite impressed I have gone up and down twice including myself. Didn't think I'd made it especially when I had to double back to retrieve water bottle. Although now I kinda regret it as my body is aching from the exertion especially the knees. Must remember not to over exercise and have plenty of rest.
The journey of a 6.8km up fuji begins with proper knee guard.
