Below and attached are full results and award winners for the 44th ANNUAL MULBERRY ISLAND HALF MARATHON & 5K held at Fort Eustis on Saturday, September 6, 2025. The race was sponsored by the Fort Eustis MWR. The Mulberry Island Half Marathon is also the 9th race of the 12-race 2025 Peninsula Track Club Grand Prix.
The Mulberry Island 5K and Half Marathon both start near and end in front of Anderson Fieldhouse. The half marathon course was USATF Certified #VA14019RT while the 5K course was USATF Certified #VA14014RT. Plans are to re-certify both courses in the near future. In any event, both previously certified courses were followed correctly by the runners.
The 2025 edition of the Mulberry Island Runs were held under warm running conditions, sunny with a temperature of 72 at race start rising into the 80s during the event.  A total of 218 runners entered the events.  117 runners entered the half marathon with 105 completing the half marathon course. 101 runners entered the 5K with 86 completing the 5K course.
Course records for the Mulberry Island Half Marathon have been compiled based on results dating from 1987 to the present (results from earlier years being difficult to locate). Based on these results, three new age group course records were set in 2025.
For Women 25-29, 1st Woman Overall Sarah Jeon, 27 of Yorktown VA set a new age group record with a time of 1:30:43 beating the old record of 1:41:09 set by Carmenza Reese in 1987.
For Women 55-59, 2nd Woman Overall Deelyn Robinson, 59 of Williamburg VA set a new age group record with a time of 1:40:53 beating the time of 1:44:11 set by Karin Stronach in 1996.
