Career people (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

race

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'career' is the first definition.
(career can mean to race around)

'people' is the second definition.
(people can mean a national group or race)

(Other definitions for race that I've seen before include "Run swiftly" , "Breed" , "Run fast" , "Contest; nation" , "The ... is not to the swift (Bible)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Globe and Mail.
