Rallying cry propels March Athletic Club's Frostbite fortunes

After round one disappointment, 35 senior and 11 junior runners helped the club progress in their divisions at Ferry Meadows in Peterborough.

With near-perfect running conditions, the seniors jumped to eighth whereas the juniors stayed 10th overall.

Newcomer Andrew Jakeman was first March runner home in 28:24 in the five-mile cross country race, ahead of Liam Lambert and Toni Alcaraz.
