I also hate running at the mo, a coupla years back i played club rugby which involved quite a bit of aerobic fitness and I remember back then I also hated it but after a short while I learned to love it - I think that it is the pain of getting into it that causes the dislike, but that soon passes and you can enjoy your workout.
Have you heard the phrase "Success breeds success"? i believe that the motivation to run actually comes from running :)
I have always preferred to run early in the mornings' cool crisp air.
As a side note I have read that it is beneficial for boxers to include interval runs into their roadwork program.
