I think GPS often over-estimates the elevations, or over-emphasizes the small elevation gains and losses. So 1500 to 2000 feet in 100 miles would be basically flat.
So, over the course, you're really only climbing about 1000 feet worth of hills total. Although I counted maybe 15 "significant" hills over the course.
Anyway, it doesn't looking anything that would be particularly worrisome.
