The runner in love with his city

Sure, there are the annoying people on the T and the panhandlers and the outrageous cost of an apartment, but Elliot Haney reports there's nothing like a run on the Esplanade in the fall to make you appreciate Boston:

Running in a city is unlike running anywhere else. There is such an energy here, that it may almost be worth the cost. I feel like I'm a part of something here, wether it's the fact that I feel such a connection to the city because of my work with City Year, or whatever it is, Boston is a pretty amazing place.
