Best Answer

Yesterday, in the 2011 LA marathon, 27000 of us participated but of that 27000, 18914 finished -- Which is about 71% (it was under extreme conditions though, which may have caused more people than usual to drop out (all-day torrential rain, and 20mph winds = the shivers)

What percent of runners usually finish a marathon?

Considering that only about 500K people have ever run the Boston Marathon in over 115 years, the answer is not very many. If we're looking at just the US population, then that would be less than 0.2% of all Americans will run in the Boston Marathon. If we're looking at worldwide population, then it would be less than 0.0001% of the world will run in the Boston Marathon.
