The guy who won this last year benched his own weight 30 reps and then ran a 19:34 5k. The only age groups they have are over 50 and under 50..... And they had a grand total of 50 participants.

They have that at the Arnold Fitness Weekend in Columbus too, I would like to try this sometime.
I'm out of town in Baltimore that weekend, or I would drive up and cheer you on!
