Another post from @DopeyBadger about DNS/DNF:
70-80 percent is the finisher to total bib number ratio, the DNS/DNF is split among the remaining percentage.Some years ago a DIS member who no longer posts was able to access some data on number of DNFs. My recollection was that it was usually something like 400-600 runners at the most. Far far less than the 70-80% bib finisher number may suggest. The larger number of missing bibs from crossing the finish are from “Did not start” runners based on that old data.
