When you live here, as long as I have (36 years...) you become well accustomed to the altitude. On the flip side, you can't help noticing how much more air there is, and how much easier it is to run or do strenuous activities, when you're at the beach or some other lower elevation!! Of course many people come to Colorado and have difficulty in breathing, especially in the mountains where they can acquire altitude sickness and even die (in rare occasions). Coloradoans are the healthiest people!
