I felt that I was king of the hill after I hiked up Penang Hill/Bukit Bendera again in 57 minutes, because I’d never seen anyone else going as fast as me. As far as I knew, everyone else walks slowly up, even backward, or four-abreast. Many people wear long-sleeve shirts and long pants and towels around their necks, and some hold umbrellas aloft.  So I’d thought that I was the fastest, as no one passes me, and I pass everyone. But when I descended Penang Hill, about halfway, I was surprised to see a caucasian man jogging uphill. I don’t know how far he was going to jog. If we were going the same direction, I would’ve asked him, or asked how long he takes to go all the way up. Maybe that guy goes up in 47 minutes. I won’t know unless I see him again and ask. But I’d already resolved to jog more of the gentle inclines and reach the top in less than 57 minutes. I want to aim for 50 minutes. Anyone want to race me?
