Perhaps no race is more targeted at the Dojo than Lawyers Have Heart. The ultimate DC distance running throwdown for attorneys.
This year, in hot, humid weather, over a crazy course, Dojo runners took home several big honors.
Chris Higby is ready for action!
The categories seem to change a bit every year, and one tweak for 2015 was adding in an "Overall Legal" category. I take this to be the fastest legal professional of any denomination. Well, Dojo swept the top two men's spots, with Jeff Redfern (34:36) and Josh Sohn (35:42). Jeff joins a long line of Dojo runners (well, mostly Chris Pruitt) as the fastest lawyer in DC. Chris Higby rounded things out, winning his age group in 38:49. Also noteworthy is that Chris Higby led the Covington team to the team title for Large Law firms joining PJ, Chris, Alan, and me as folks who have previously carried C&B to the coveted team win.
On the women's side, Jenny Paul ran a heck of a race, coming in 4th overall in 40:48 and battling some great runners in the process. Laura Jennings is crowned DC's fastest government attorney (42:45). Lisa Swartzfager got the most out of doing a single run with us, winning the title as DC's fastest associate (43:36).
