dressed as men and sneaked in.
people came from all over ancient Greece after they were approved to be in the Olympics because they had to be good enough. so pretty much anyone who was good enough to participate in the Olympics and was a citizen of a Greek city could participate in the Olympics.

Women did not participate in the Ancient Olympics. Only Greek speaking men were allowed to participate. Exception: in the chariot-race the owner of the horses was considered to be the competitor, and got the prize if they won. Women could put their horses in for the chariot race, and were considered competitors when they did.
Only the Greeks until about the 2nd Century AD. Some Romans forced their way in on various pretexts after Rome conquered Greece, and in the 2nd Century the Games were opened to any Roman citizen who could recite the Oath in Greek.
Athletes from the various Greek city states. Only the men could compete because they were considered strong and powerful and the women were considered an offense to Zues.
