Yeah. I don't do it unless I enjoy it. Now, I enjoy a wide range of things, include getting my muscles tired and feeling progress. But, I also don't do things that are of seeming little benefit and tiresome. I am not sure that "running" or riding out of your seat is necessary at all. I rode many mountain passes without ever getting out of the seat, and a number of folks do not even recommend getting out of your seat. I do believe that folks such as I, with short legs and a very long upper body (29 inch legs, 6 feet tall), have a more difficult time riding out of the seat - my much heavier upper body tends to get things off balance a bit, it seems. So, is simply is not an enjoyable experience for me, and I just don't do it much.
