In this episode: 0:10 A Massive Update Begins 0:35 Dave's Big Goal 5:14 Bench Press Under Pressure 7:16 Squat Feels Smooth 9:26 Deadlift and Bathroom Break 13:03 The 5K Start 15:14 Hitting the Wall 19:13 Final Lap Push 24:37 The Real Finish Time 27:37 Lessons From the Challenge We update the community on Dave's year-long challenge to complete a 300-pound bench press, 400-pound squat, 500-pound deadlift, and sub-20-minute 5K within one hour. We talk through the setup, the pressure on the bench first, and how Dave successfully completes all three lifts before moving on to the run. We then cover the 5K, including a watch issue, a bathroom stop, and the pacing through the early laps. Dave struggles more in the second half, but we help pace the final laps and confirm that he completes the challenge, with the actual 5K time later adjusted to 19:50.
