photographs

certificate

Physical
Conditioning:
The
better
your
physical
condition,
the more
you will
enjoy
the
trek.
You do
not have
to
undergo
a
rigorous
training
program.
Just do
as much
walking
as you
can up
and down
hills,
up (and
down)
stairs
in your
office
or home.
Jogging
and
cycling
are
useful
training
for a
trek.
Whenever
possible,
make
your
hikes in
the same
shoes
that you
will use
for the
trek.
You must
remember
that you
are
going on
a hiking
trip
among
the
highest
mountains
on
earth.
The
hills
are
steep
and you
may be
traveling
in hot
weather,
in snow
or in
rain.
You will
often be
tired,
and you
must be
prepared
for
this.
However,
anyone
in good
health
can
complete
a trek
if you
hike
slowly,
and
spend a
little
effort
now to
get into
good
physical
condition. |
