Halifax 101 "anticipated field of over 1000"

I just read the latest inside Triathlon, and as I get to the end, I see a full
page ad for the Halifax 101 race. It stated they expected “an anticipated field
of over 1000 triathletes from 10 countries”. So, since I have read so many post
implying that this year 101 expected small fields, it was interesting to read
this advertisement. Not saying this is good or bad, just what I read.
