Not to take away anything from him -- he's clearly beastly strong and has a lot of endurance.

I'm guessing the title is a little misleading at best if the 700lb squat and the 4:15 mile were separated by anything more than a few months, which I suspect they were.

(Which on second thought, probably does take something away from him. Kinda disingenuous, as I said, depending on how far apart the two events were.)

For those interested, Joe Decker is another that's been able to compete in both ultras and powerlifting. Of these two, Decker's the more accomplished ultra endurance athlete but I don't know if he ever got to a 700lb squat. He did get to 400lbs in the bench.
