Hi,
They are just the masochists with a very deep competitive streak.
Trust me though that hills and headwinds become less of an issue.
You go slower and it takes longer, but they become not really a lot
different to going fast pushing on the flat, and your flat speed does
improve once you stop taking it really easy just because you can.
On my main course I know where the hills are and save energy
for them, rest of the course I go as fast as I'm feeling that day.
rgds, sreten.
