Jersey Marathon winner likely to be stripped of title
It is likely that the winner of this year's Jersey Marathon is to be stripped of his title.
It has emerged that Aleksey Troshkin, who won the race on October 2nd, was not eligible to enter the race due to IAAF sanctions placed on Russia, which ban athletes from competing outside of the country.
The athlete, who is a three-time winner of the Jersey Marathon, is expected to have his result annulled and be ordered to pay back the £2,500 he received in prize money.
