I had the same issue. The first mile or so of my commute is hell... the rest is comparatively flat. The alternative route is to get on a state highway for about 2 miles which my wife did not like. I did the hill a few times and now I do the state road. I told my wife I could get hit by a car or die on the hill... either way.
