Just spoke to big Jason, hes on the final stage of his now solo West Highland Way adventure, he,s now going to be doing it over the 5 days instead of the 7 days as originally planned. He mentioned that unfortunately Scotty (Jinsin) had to pull out just after day 2 on the way, says he had a really good go at it but was hurting, i'd imagine the heat we've had up here recently wont have helped him, but at least he was willing to give it a good go, and id imagine he would have learned a lot about hiking over big distances and to be fair to him, he was hiking with a full pack and camping along the way as well, most people stay in B&B's their first time around and dont attempt it with a guy more experienced whos got a ultralight backpack on his back. Anyway well done to both of them, wish i was there doing it too, but planning on heading up in a day or two and joining Jason and going on to Inverness on the Great Glen Way.
