HB - I thought that might be the case. Although without music I honestly don't think I could run to the end of my road.
I hadn't considered the race/crowd element though and I guess that would be a pretty big motivational factor but the more I think of that the more I think I'll try and race everyone from the start and end up blowing chunks after half an hour. I think the disconnection you speak of will keep me in check and I'll just put up with the sneers from the Runner's World types.
Ed - In that case I'll budget for a lung buster this weekend and lay up next week which sounds rather appealing! Must stretch though, I'm lazy at stretching.
Maybe I'll give up smoking too...
