This climb takes those in good shape an average of 45 minutes. The majority of people make it to the top in an hour and a half. For me, the climb took two hours, and instead of feeling like a victory at first, it felt like running a gauntlet rife with public shame and humiliation. With every step, I fell further and further behind my group of several hundred tourists.
Sweating worse than ever, I kept on going. My shirt and pants were soaking wet. I could smell my body odor getting riper. My hair was dripping and sweat was running down into my eyes, causing them to sting. I was gasping for air as the altitude increased, and I could feel every beat of my heart as it pounded in my chest.
