MNDA Jersey Half Marathon 2025 Race Report

Race Report

The MNDA Jersey Half Marathon 2025 in association with Jersey Spartan AC took place on Sunday morning. Under sunny skies and with a field of 387 entries, any concerns of rain were banished, in this the most southerly Half marathon in the British Isles.
Tom Barclay took an early lead and his gun to tape performance saw him winning in a time of 1 hour 14 minutes. Rahul Kini, fully recovered from his effort in the Island Games in Orkney was the runner up, with Josh Brien overcoming a foot injury to finish in third place.
Jess Troy was a clear winner in the Ladies race coming home unchallenged in a time of 1 hour 25 minutes. Olivia Shanks had a fine run to finish in second place as Fran Monticelli took the third spot.
There was also plenty of applause for MNDA Jersey Chairman Don Connolly as he completed the course with a strong run.

There were age group wins for:

Steve Ashton (M40-49)

Sean Fenwick (M50-59)

Phil Ahier (M60-69)

Emma Sanford (F40-49)

Emma Gwyther (F50-59)

Clare Bourne (F60-69)

We are pleased to announce that together we have raised £3,000 for Jersey Cancer Relief. We would like to give a special shout out to Libby Desbois, our biggest individual fundraiser, who raised close to £600 for MNDA Jersey. Well done Libby!

Congratulations to everyone who participated. We hope to see you again next year!

Many thanks to all the sponsors, marshals, timekeepers and helpers in what was a very successful event.
