Hi Managed to get a GB entry into the FLM, first time for me, is the course relativly flat or are there many slopes ? curently training up to 14 miles with 3 Bitch hills on route so just trying to get a level of effort required over the weeks to come.

Good luck - wish I could say I was going to be there to, but I'm a reject :-(
A nice downhill at the start, a bit of an incline coming out of Greenwich going along Creek Road, maybe a slight up going into Surrey Quays, and the underpass at about 23-24 miles (after a nice downhill, but even that can kill your legs after that far!).
These are all pretty minor - not what I'd call bitch hills!
Seriously though JB if you're doing hill training you won't even feel any of the slight inclines
Watch out for the Speed bumps at the start - someone took a nasty tumble there this year !
Cost me about 43 mins I reckon. ;-)
Except for Tower Bridge and that blasted underpass coming back from the east - I know it isn't much but I really hate having to run under that tunnel and then up the other side.
