Library of Congress lawyer finds competitive edge in speed skating

When Maureen Cohen Harrington interviewed for a position as a lawyer at the Library of Congress more than four years ago, she told her future boss that she needed to work part time because she had a serious inline skating schedule to follow.

Harrington, a 41-year-old native of Silver Spring, has been a member of the Washington Area Roadskaters for 13 years, an inline skating club comprised of roughly 75 amateur and competitive skaters.
