    This is awesome and I find it very inspirational. I just turned 50 and was a pretty ok Ironman athlete 10-15 years ago. Started lifting about a year go and after seeing you post this challenge to Symmonds, I decided that 400 pounds and a six minute mile for me would be a great goal. I am looking forward to crushing that in the spring of 2022.
    Thanks for the great idea!

      That’s pretty easy. If you’re a former Ironman athlete, you probably don’t need to work too hard for a 6 minute mile - maybe around 6-8 weeks of training. The 400lb deadlift is achievable in 6 months, less if you have the right leverages

    I enjoyed the commentary and reflection to his 8th grade race against his then junior high nemesis while he was running. I was very impressed with his form even with the extra muscle bulk as he got out in the first lap. It was fairly obvious that he was going to drop off the pace soon after and while he did I give him mad props for being able to run a 5:28 after deadlifting 500lbs at high elevation no less on a not well maintained dirt track. I don't doubt he'll be able to accomplish the challenge at sea level, better conditions, and with a better running prep.

    Best not to try to jump over the bar. Why not lift with your back to the direction you want to start running towards? How about having the bar parallel to the running direction so you start running to one side? Also, lifting with straps sure is easier but if he can do the lift without straps, that's possibly another 2 secs off the run

      I don't think he tried to jump over the bar--looked like his hand got stuck in the wrist wraps that help him with grip as he was coming down. That's a lot of force otw down.

      You just need to use another type of straps, like the ones weightlifters use, which you can release inmediately.

    Thanks for the inspiration!!!
    What speed does the pace bicycle keep for a 5-minute mile? Gotta do some math here....
    EDIT: pace bike needs to go 12mph for a 5 minute mile.

    Very impressive, especially considering he’s a former world class marathon runner! As an 18 year old I could deadlift 500 and do a sub 5:30 mile (not on the same day!!!). But that was peak mile for me based most on sprint training-I could barely run 5 miles on the road. I’m 59 now still lifting and running.

      Who cares if he is? I could have probably come close without roids and GH and barely creatine but at the end of the day I wouldn't call him out if I seen him taking PEDs because he's like 40 years old on a dirt track and freaking Ryan Hall. When I was close to that capability I was like 27 and running on a rubber track.
