A great story about a fellow who runs the Boston Marathon course every year on New Year's Day starting at 6am. Thanks to Becca for the excellent link!
Hmmm, I am strongly wanting to run that race one of these days myself - but I agree with the story's drift, that the solitary run through empty streets is far more enjoyable than the one with throngs of people...

Cool story! I ran the second half of the course one Saturday morning and found it very peaceful - I can only imagine how serene it must be on New Year's Day.
Happy New Year Jenny :)
That does sound like a nice run. Although I must admit that I have hopes of one day qualifying and racing with the throngs.
Yes, Al, let us both try and fight our way into legitimate spots!
Happy New Year, Laura!
