Kerry the Shred is good, I got it for £5 from Amazon. Now I got it a few months ago, put it on and turned it off after about 5 mins:eek:.
I decided last night that I would try again so put it on this morning and persevered, its only 20 minutes but high impact (well for me anyway) and I have read on people having some great results from it

I was planning Ben Nevis every week before the school holidays (did this last year and lost a stone) but might save the petrol and invest in the Shred.

Wow I'd love to do that! How hard/easy is it?

It gets easier. Perhaps pick a smaller hill to start. Ben Lomond is a little closer to Glasgow. Last spring/summer I did it every week for 12 weeks. I like the drive.

After a few weeks my legs no longer ached afterwards and my time was down to 2hours up and 1hour50 down. Just check the weather before on http://www.bennevisweather.co.uk/weather.asp

Also make sure you take wee stops when you need to, have water/food appropriate for the trip and the basic equiptment. (I only walk in reasonably good weather so can take a bit more of a risk equiptment wise)

Ok now I definitely want to try it! Will have to work on fitness for a while though!

Yeah I am pretty fit which helps. You could try and persuade a friend(s) to join you- this is how I started off. I only walk it in spring/summer and try and catch good weather so only really have walking boots, socks, liner socks and a fleeces as far as specialist equiptment goes. Even try some smaller hills closer to home.

Just a quick iPhone update. Didn't do the c25k today due to the rain. Oops
I done another shred though and the pain continues! Haha
Have not had any chocolate
Bought an £8 bikini from primark. Urghhh
Also discovered today, the first proper rain since the roof/gutters were repaired that they definitely were NOT repaired
