If the heights are accurate ( accuracy can vary wildly over devices and apps ) then 50 meters is a reasonable climb over 5 k.
I love my hill climbing, my standard daily run has 300 meters of climbs.Comment

Tip for those wanting to lose weight as part of all this : A morning ride *before breakfast* at 60-70% MHR for an hour (longer if you feel like it) will kick start your body into burning fat. You can boost the effect by having a double espresso or a strong black instant coffee before you set out.
Make sure you have breakfast available when you get back or you'll end up bingeing on anything you can find a couple of hours later."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
