Central Park, NYC - For those who don't know about this race, it's one of the best NYC running events of the year.  The New York Road Runners Emerald Nuts NYE Midnight Run is an annual event commencing exactly at the start of each new year.  Fireworks, music, alcohol-free champagne, custumes, high-level racing (as a pro or two normally show each year), are the norm at this event, and a good time is always had by all.  Check out the race info here at www.nyrr.org
