WOD – 5.28.2012
“Murph”
For time:
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Squats
1 mile Run
In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.
This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it “Body Armor”. It will be referred to as “Murph” in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.
Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you’ve got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.
Post time to comments.

It was amazing to see everyone give their all…to honor those who sacrifice so much for our freedom. Great energy today. So glad I participated.
I, too, want to thank our men and women who serve our country and keep us safe at night. I enjoyed meeting those I only read about on the white board. The teamwork and camaraderie today was awesome!!! Looking forward to the next time we do “Murph”.:
