A Christmas-themed race in Houston with a festive atmosphere at the finish. Hot cocoa is out after you cross the line, and the morning brings carolers and a visit from the man in the red suit and his elves. Several distance options mean the morning works for a range of runners, and the holiday setup gives it more of a party feel than a typical weekend road race.
