Retrieval over visually-rich documents, pages that interleave text with figures, tables, and charts, is essential for multimodal retrieval-augmented generation, yet most retrievers still discard the visual channel. The \emph{Multimodal Document Retrieval Challenge}, Track~1 of the MIR Challenge at the first EReL@MIR workshop, co-located with The Web Conference 2025, asks participants to build a \emph{single} retrieval system that handles two complementary regimes: closed-set document page retrieval within long documents from a text query (MMDocIR), and open-domain retrieval of Wikipedia-style passages from an image or image-plus-text query (M2KR). Systems are ranked by the macro-average of mean Recall@$\{1,3,5\}$ over the two tasks. The challenge drew 455 entrants and 586 submissions across 22 teams. This report describes the challenge design, datasets, and evaluation protocol; reports the final standings; and analyses the three winning teams' systems. All three build on decoder-based Multimodal-LLM embedders from the Qwen2-VL family rather than on CLIP-style encoders, and differ chiefly in whether they reach the top through fine-tuned ensembles, training-free multi-route fusion with a strong vision-language re-ranker, or zero-shot late interaction. The training-free system finished within $0.1$ point of the fine-tuned winner.
