Thats complete bollocks! Neither the FRA nor WFRA, SHRA or IMRA are responsible for 'promoting' races! The numbers game is entirely down to population size within a one-two hour drive time of the event...where 90% of competitors will come from.
Fell races don't need promotion...indeed that's a dangerous route to go down. A well organised race with a reputation will always attract runners. What do you call a 'decent sized field'? Every time I have done Carneddau, the field has seemed perfectly matched for facilities/route etc.
But of course, North Wales is in complete societal meltdown according to the Oracle.
