FLINT, MI – Dot McMahan, a professional runner from Rochester Hills, finished first in the women’s open at the HAP CareSource Crim Festival of Races 10-mile run.

McMahan, 48, finished the race with a time of 55 minutes and 47 minutes, according to Crim race results.

McMahan won a $3,000 prize for finishing in first place, but she didn’t even think about competing for the money, she said.

This is her 12th Crim Festival of Races 10-mile run, she said. Like the winner of the men’s division, McMahan said she likes that the second half of the race is more difficult.

“I always try to run the second half faster than the first,” McMahan said. “… That’s always my big goal – no matter what kind of shape I am in, I just know I try to conquer the course.”

McMahan also finished in first place in the open Crim 10-mile race in 2024.
