I did the Melbourne Half a few years back which had several tens of thousands of runners. Too many for my liking, it was pandemonium at the drinks stations. It was quite cool to see wall-to-wall runners as far as I could see both in front and behind me.
I'm more fond of smaller races on interesting courses (especially off-road). Not that I'm anywhere near that kind of shape at the moment.
