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.
