According to Flotrack, Bernie Montoya has just been announced as an entrant in the International Mile to be held at the Pre Classic. Sub-4:00 being the obvious goal.
Honestly, I really hope they add Saarel to the mix. He blew the doors off Montoya at the Dream Mile, and I really think he's in 3:57-3:58 shape right now. That being said, if Montoya's in better shape than the Dream Mile race indicated, I could see him going 3:59.

he'll run faster than Alan Webb, thats all I know
Hot air!
Put your money where your mouth is.
Ill bet you $500 he does not beat Webb's time as high schooler at Pre.
this is exciting news.
but i agree, someone get Ben in this!!
WHY ISN'T SAAREL IN THIS???????
Also, why the hype around Montoya? He hasn't won ANYTHING this year but keeps getting showed up.
the international mile will almost certainly have better people than the nationl 1500.
even the national 1500 has better runners than montoya.
they should put montoya in the national 1500 NOT the international mile.
naw. put him in the bowerman mile. thats what they did with webb and he ran like 353.
cant argue with that logic!!
Saarel is done for the season, probably on strict instructions from Wetmore.
Why would Wetmore care about one mor race? Give the kid a chance.
In all likelihood, he will not be a top 20 guy in XC.
I want see both of these guys in it. Maybe bS turned it down and the invite went to BM.

Are you fully idiot?
He wants to run a sub-4 mile. If he runs a 4:00 mile, he will have people to run with, so that's not a worry. But also, he can't run a sub-4 mile if he's entered in the 1500, because the 1500 isn't a mile.
I think Saarel should do this because he would likely break 4:00 and it would increase his market value in the future.
he should forget about the Buffs, to be a Wolverine at Michigan and be a great track star in the future. Wetmore
cares little for Track will get him injured.

I'm guessing he meant he'll run faster than Alan Webb will run NOW. Which would actually be somewhat realistic, except Webb is doing the 1500, not the mile, so I wouldn't call it fair to compare them.
Why Montoya instead of Saarel, because the former will be able to say on the starting line, "Hello. My name is Bernie Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

That word...I do not think it means what you think it means.

Would be great to see Ben Saarel in the race too; regardless, the Mile wins!
Thank you, Pre Classic for running the Mile.
