Second photo: Near the front of a fast women's group, Jacqueline Concaugh, 29, of Alexandria, VA finished second in 37:37 despite a long shift at work. Desire makes her unstoppable!

Third photo: Finishers in the 10K run approach the finish line under a canopy of trees. Dale Learn of Senator Murray's office organized "Running Divas and Dudes," who surfed quickly to the end. "Team Donut" brought up the rear, and a friendly dozen and a half runners from the FBI Academy all finished the run.
