The obvious answer is of course I am a pansy, and it's true. But beyond that, am I a total pansy for being rocked by hills a quarter of a mile long but with 13.5% gradients? There are several of these damn things around here, and it drives me crazy. I am totally out of shape because I've been studying abroad for the last year, and Cairo destroyed my lungs (just breathing there normally=a pack/day worth of damage) but I still feel so very weak when I drop down to the small ring on my compact...

I really need to get back in shape.
