"Undulating". The furthest I've run averaging sub-7. 

The good:
Longest sub-7 run
4:13/km (6:47/mile) GAP isn't bad and I don't do hills well
Fairly good effort-based pacing
Strong finish, passed a few :-)
Great friendly event, £28 non-affiliated
4 water stations
Nice slate coaster for finishing

The not-too-bad-because:
Over-eaten this week in the Lakes
Training has been enjoying fell running
Wore my every day trainers, not race shoes

The bad:
Failed to grab jelly babies so stopped and went back. Stoopid.
Can't run up hills for toffee. Repeatedly got passed on the ups but generally recaught on the downs
Quite a bit off the 4:00/km pace I was hoping to run at Fleet 6 days earlier (event postponed)
