One of my favourite times of the year to run is Christmas Day and New Year ’s Day. Realistically you only get the really devoted who are out running on these days. The roads and trails are clear and you are free to indulge in some solitude and serenity.
The past two years I have in particular enjoyed a New Year’s Day run. 08 going into 09 I ran the full marathon distance and last year only about 25km. It is rather entertaining to see all the revellers making their way home and to see some of those who did not quite make it.
My great wish would be to see an organised run occurring on this day, as is custom in various cities around the world. What better way to greet the arrival of a new year than with a run.
