People in competition (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

race

I believe this clue is a double definition.

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

'competition' is the second definition.
(I know that race is a type of race)

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for race that I've seen before include "Run quickly" , "Run - competition" , "Care about contest" , "Breed" , "Run, dash" .)

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