DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1. In a method for producing a polyurethane by the reaction consisting essentially of a polymeric polyol with a polyisocyanate, the improvement comprising, using as said polyol a polymeric polyol having in the molecule thereof a group represented by the formula I: ##STR8## 2. A method as defined in claim 1, wherein said polymeric polyol having a group represented by the formula [I] is a polyester polyol having an average molecular weight of 500 to 30,000 obtained by reacting 2-methyl-1,8-octanediol or a mixed glycol containing said diol as a main component, with a dicarboxylic acid, or is a polycarbonate polyol having an average molecular weight of 500 to 30,000 obtained by reacting 2-methyl-1,8-octanediol or a mixed glycol containing said diol as a main component, with a dicarbonate. 3. A method as defined in claim 2, wherein said mixed glycol consists of 2-methyl-1, 8-octanediol and an alkanediol represented by the formula: HO(CH. sub. 2). sub. n OH wherein n is an integer of 6 to 9. 4. A method as defined in claim 2, wherein said polymeric polyol is said polyester polyol. 5. A method as defined in claim 2, wherein said polymeric polyol is said polycarbonate polyol. 6. A polyurethane obtained by the reaction consisting essentially of a polyisocyanate with a polymeric polyol having in the molecule thereof a group represented by the formula I: ##STR9## 7. A polyurethane as defined in claim 6, wherein said polymeric polyol having a group represented by the formula I is a polyester polyol having an average molecular weight of 500 to 30,000 obtained by reacting 2-methyl-1,8-octanediol or a mixed glycol containing said diol as a main component, with a dicarboxylic acid, or is a polycarbonate polyol having an average molecular weight of 500 to 30,000 obtained by reacting 2-methyl-1,8-octanediol or a mixed glycol containing said diol as a main component, with a dicarbonate. 8. A polyurethane as defined in claim 7, wherein said mixed glycol consists of 2-methyl-1,8-octanediol and an alkanediol represented by the formula: HO(CH
