Come run with me...most days the sweat evaporates before you notice you are sweating and when you go back it will seem flatter!

(My total ascending last week was over 12,000' but I'm sure it's much cooler here than where you are. Thankfully I'm now on the hill and mileage taper. I still don't feel ready for what I expect Imogene throw at me, though!)
