39 days until Murph
Been training for this all year! Last year was the first time I was able to do Murph without scaling the movements. This year will be my first with the vest.

39 days until Murph
Been training for this all year! Last year was the first time I was able to do Murph without scaling the movements. This year will be my first with the vest.
Hardest workout I’ve ever finished.
But I did finish. First time ever doing Murph without scaling my pullups and pushups!
Time again to start thinking about “Murph,” a crossfit WOD on Memorial Day weekend in memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy who was killed in Afghanistan. The last time I did this workout was two years ago and I remember it being pretty rough. This year my goal is to do my pullups RX for the first time, and finish in under an hour. Next year, my goal is to get my pushups RX as well and maybe even wear a vest. For this year, my main focus is keeping a consistent pace throughout and to not stop.
Lieutenant Michael P. Murphy received the Medal of Honor for his actions during Operation Red Wings. A memorial park in Ronkonkoma, L.I., and a post office in Patchogue(his home town) now bear his name, and the naval destroyer Michael Murphy patrols the Pacific. His valorous death has inspired myself, and many others, beyond description. Thank you for being my hero.
