I have been a little concerned while I have been here that I have lacked energy and been a bit breathless. I have just discovered from Wikipedia that...
Albuquerque has one of the highest elevations of any major city in the United States, though the effects of this are greatly tempered by its southwesterly continental position. The elevation of the city ranges from 4,900 feet (1,490 m) above sea level near the Rio Grande (in the Valley) to over 6,700 feet (1,950 m) in the foothill areas of Sandia Heights and Glenwood Hills.
That would explain that then... Doh!
