This isn't a good idea.

I'd like to see the women's race moved up to 10k. Especially since they have 18 scholarships to spread around, they can afford to recruit 10k specialists instead of having the milers get all the focus. I don't think anyone believe anymore that XXs can't run as far as XYs. So why not give the female distance runners a venue instead of focusing on the middle distance stars? That would allow schools to build around a wider diversity of events, making the sport deeper and richer.
