Baker broke the tape at the Chichester College finish line while Brighton's Ali Guihen took the women's title in her first attempt at the course. Baker told us: "It was a pretty solid run. I felt quite comfortable all the way. I'm quite happy with my time. I was aiming for sub-74 minutes really so I was well within that target."
