Baker serves up national title
Baker led the Aldershot, Farnham & District team to under-20 women’s gold at the National Cross-Country Relays in Mansfield.
This was a welcome result for the 18-year-old ex-Bexhill and Rye College student who, after winning the Home Countries International Cross-Country last March, suffered a series of injuries which blighted her summer track season.
