As one of the BTA technical team at London it always seemed that the numbers were slightly thinner on the ground than the 3,000 that they had been claiming but it's never easy to tell until you get the results. We now have those from their website and so here's the running total of finishers:

Category 2000 1999 1998
Sprint (male) 180 140 135
Sprint (female) 99 95 75
Total (sprint) 279 235 210
Relay 186 215 170
Non-age group 183 135 117
Age group (male) 628 929 879
Age group (female) 92 144 154
Elite (male) 7 15 41
Elite (female) 3 6 19
Total (olympic) 1192 1444 1380
Total finishers 1750 1679 1590

One point to note is that a relay team counts as THREE finishers which distorts the total finishers number (as it always has).
