I go it alone. Long runs are one of my favorite runs of the week. As Monk said, it is nice to have that time alone. I concentrate on my my running and just think about whatever comes to mind. Also, I see a lot that I wouldn't notice if gabbing away with a friend...and the fact is I don't know anyone in this area who would even conceive of doing a long run.
What I've noticed on long runs...only runners and bikers are out at the hour I run it. In the Summer, I run it between 5:30 and 6:00 in the morning.
That said, sometimes I consider joining a running club about 35 minutes away...but I wouldn't want to run with them on long run day...and then I think...it's not worth driving 35 mintutes for a 6 or 7 mile run. :shrug:
