Each session lasts about an hour.
So I guess it would be 2 hours or a little more to do it in one session.

My hat's off to you, being able to accomplish that much in one workout. I'd be done less than halfway through!
Just curious, how long does a workout like that take to complete?

That's pretty impressive. I counted the equivalent of 14 worksets, so just the rest periods alone would take me about 2 hours. Then add in warmups, etc. You must be in much better cardio shape than I am!
Though, I did shorten my rests today, since I was doing 3-rep sets for my worksets. I went with 6 minute rests instead 10, and still finished the sets with no issue.

Maybe, maybe not, hard to say.
My cardio has certainly improved since I have incorporated it into my training, and my recovery between sets has certainly improved as a result.
I never take more than 5 minutes rest between sets except on very rare occasions.
Most of my lifts are in a deloaded state too, where you are pushing new PRs so that will also have big impact on your recovery between sets.

Bench Program
Bench: 203.5 lbs (92.5kg), 7 sets of 5 (Deloaded)
500m Row: 141.6 (New PR)
The last rep on the 7th set of bench was definitely a grinder today.
The 500m row killed me, felt like vomiting. I will definitely go a bit easier next time.

That's a very good point, I hadn't considered that.

Finally a bloody PR.
