I think the relative scarcity of these kinds of events being documented 10 years ago led to an aggressive search for these kinds of "girl next door getting naked for no reason" that has since turned into a kind of obsession for some. I sympathize with the last year's winner, why would she go out there again in the age of social media?

She actually shared a naked photo of herself on her Facebook-page last year and was pissed that Facebook deleted it, so she shared the link to a gallery on a newspaper instead. Didn't think she cared that much.
Denmark is very free in mind on this matter but getting exactly 12 girls and 12 guys have always been a problem, since the race started. Seen multiple from this years race, share the naked pictures of themselves on their own Instagram profiles, one of this years girl participants, even ran with her brother.
When you participate in the naked run at Roskilde, you know that medias will come and take pictures and send live. When your'e topless by the festival lake, you know the media will come and take pictures. People know that you can't do anything at Roskilde, without the risk of media taking pictures, because they have photographers and reporters all over.
I know the problems with WNBR, but thats maybe because the people taking pictures actually can be creepy and some photographers focuses heavily on specific girls. You don't often see medias bring pictures from these events.
Roskilde naked run is about being naked for fun and having no problem in showing your body to everyone, it's a protest against censorship of the naked body. WNBR is about something else and maybe that's what upset some of the people attending the WNBR events.
The organizers of the naked run actually invites the media. The organizers of WNBR (at least in Byron Bay this year) tried to keep them away.
