Talk:List of largest running events

Ordering of index is off
Hi fellow Wikipedians,,

The ordering of the table is currently by manual index (position column).

However, if you sort by participant number you will see that this sorting is off.

I think we would be best off by removing this index alltogether, and sorting the table by participant number by default.

Agreed? Best regards!

DHL relay in DK
5x5km relay, where employees of companies race each other in 5person teams, ~200.000 participants in 5 cities (three concetutive days) this year August 20-21-22. See http://www.dhlstafetten.dk/ claimed to be the worlds biggest running event, but it's spread over 5 cities does that then exclude it from the list?

What about the “Stramilano“ held yearly in Milan? As far as I know, in many editions the participants were around 50,000! --Vermondo (talk) 11:03, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

Kahit Isang Araw Lang: Unity Run 2012
Listed as the biggest race ever, but there are no links and no documentation provided. Please add them if this is a legitimate addition to the list. Irregulargalaxies (talk) 19:19, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Army Ten-Miler
The ATM should be added too. Last year (Oct. 2012), there were over 22,000 finishers. That's more than enough to make it onto this list.
