Updates on Blue Jeans Mile Prize Purse

By Paul Snyder

March 25, 2017

It seems more people are clamoring to see a sub-4:00 (or sub-4:36 for the ladies) than we had expected. So we’re going to keep tabs on the rapidly expanding prize purse here, instead of in the original announcement.

Stay tuned to this page for updates on how much you stand to gain financially just by donning a pair of non-elastic jeans and hitting the track. (Full rules and jean-criteria are listed in the original announcement.)

Paul Snyder – $200.

Craig Lutz – $200

Chris Chavez – $150

Zach Ornealas – $100

Ryan Sterner – $100

Shane Conway – $100

Whoever Dumb Flotrack is – $100

Christopher Hough – $50

Running Revolution, Campbell, CA – $200

*If 4:00/4:36 are broken at the Schrader Mile, meet director Paras Shah will pay an additional $200 + $50 per athlete beaten while wearing jeans.

Current purse is $1,200*
