Analysis:

An overwhelming response in support of the 100m which is what I expected. Nice to see the 1500 getting an appearance. Once upon a time the distance that meant oh so much to the Brits. My guess is that the longer distances of 5,000 and 10,000 will start to become more popular after the great races by Mo Farah.
