Just checked back and it looks like they changed the rules above. When I posted my first comment, it said "Male Only" where it now says "Male (sub 4:05 mile), Female (sub 4:48 mile) *Difference between men's WR and women's WR is ~29 seconds. Women will be given a 29.43 second head start." I guess they heard us!

Kudos to you Puma.

It's wonderful that PUMA is sponsoring the Mile. BUT, BUT, BUT....having no women's mile (or better yet, a women's 1500m, as women do not have the same history with the mile as men), is truly a mistake! At all levels of track, from high school, to age group USATF, college, National USATF and finally international -IAAF, comparable events are held for both sexes.
Puma, please get into the 21st century and sponsor a separate event for the other half of the world!!!!at

Women are able to compete. Read the rules above.

Thanks,

i think this is an awesome thing that puma is doing, but it really is sad that there is not an equal chance for women to get a contract too. there would be more fast women competing after college and in an event like this if there were more post-collegiate opportunities for women. look at the post-collegiate teams that do exist. they are primarily men. if more women had a chance, the competition would get better. this is just perpetuating the fact that women do not have as many opportunities post-collegiately as men do and hurting women's running in the u.s.

Open your eyes and lean the truth.The reason more men run in "Post-Collegiate" groups is because of the lack of interest from the women to run after college. Most women don't and wont live the life of a runner! E-mail any group and ask them for yourself, they will tell you!

PUMA MILE BABY!!!

maybe the logical reason is that puma doesnt owe you a damn thing and it is just a blessing that they will be able to hold a mile race. I dont see many pole vaulters coming on here complaining about equal opportunities. I tell ya, american woman can be such female dogs at times!

I just briefly read through all of this, so im not sure- does it say anywhere that you have to be a man to compete? whats not fair? if ann doesnt like it, maybe she should get in their and win in it!

There are way more fast men that run unattached, then women who run unattached. A guys race will be loaded.
Maybe next year. Lets support the guys and not be so NEGATIVE!

you know whats wrong? Title IX

why not give the guys a break now?

For the 2nd straight year, Puma holds a mens-only race. Last year the excuse was, the economy was tough and there wasn't enough money for prize money for a men's and women's race. What's the excuse now?

Maybe there is a logical reason, and if so, I'd like to hear it.
Sorry, I hate to be negative, but this is just too wrong.

Maybe you could make sestion of female athletes around 4:30 that are not sponsored or in college that could compete.

If they see a field to be had maybe they will open it up.

I thought David Torrence won the 2009 Puma Mile.

Why did some other guy get the contract?

David Torrence signed with Nike soon after, sending the Puma contract to the second place finisher.

I heard Liam Boylan-Pett is going to enter. If he wins PUMA should make a custom head band for him.
