Start your morning strong, move your way through a flat and fast, out-and-back course on Park Row Drive at the Addicks Park and Ride, right off of I-10 in the Energy Corridor District, just a short drive from the Houston Inner Loop and West Houston suburbs, and finish with a delicious side  of celebration.
