Baker's busts a gut for Butser victory

Fresh from winning the Havant Parkrun 5k just 24 hours earlier, the Chichester Runners & AC completed the testing 4.5-mile course in a superb time of 32min 14sec.

Undeterred by the weather – which incorporated hail, rain, poor visibility and thunder and lightning – the 35-year-old excelled in the atrocious conditions to beat second-placed runner, Churchers College’s John Franklin (33.12), by over a minute.
