Lake County runners delivered standout performances at the 2025 Missoula Marathon and associated races over the weekend, with top finishes from athletes young and old across multiple events.

In the full marathon, Polson’s Jason Delaney and his daughter Morgan Delaney ran to impressive placements in the 26.2-mile race. Jason, competing in the 45–49 age division, clocked a time of 2:35:01, finishing fourth overall and first in his age group. His daughter Morgan, a rising standout, broke the three-hour barrier with a time of 2:58:24, placing 45th overall and taking first place in the 19-and-under division.

The half marathon featured a number of high-achieving runners with ties to Mission, Polson, and Ronan. Former Ronan standout Jackson Duffey, a 2022 graduate of Rocky Mountain College, placed third overall in the half marathon with a blazing time of 1:09:27.
