MURPH Challenge 2021

Join a unique group of participants who pay tribute to LT. Michael P. Murphy (SEAL) during this Memorial Day tradition--the famous Hero WOD (Workout of the Day), "MURPH". This workout was one of Mike's favorites. 

The workout:

Run:                               1 Mile
Pull Ups:                        100
Push Ups:                      200
Squats:                          300
Run:                               1 Mile

Individuals will be able to partition the pull-ups, push-ups and squats as needed (i.e. 5-10-15 reps for 20 rounds). On the start of 3-2-1-Go... individuals will start and finish with a mile run. If athletes choose to wear a twenty-pounds vest or body armor (Rx/Alpha category), they can wear it, however, this will not be provided by MWR Sports and Fitness. A scaled version (Bravo category/without a twenty-pounds vest) of the MURPH will be available for individual participants who cannot perform the prescribed rep scheme. Additional scaling options:

Pull Ups:                          TRX rows / band-assisted / jumping pull ups
Push Ups:                        Knee modified / box push ups / incline / TRX / wall-assisted
Air Squats:                       Box sits / modified squats / wall slides

All registered participants will receive a MURPH t-shirt. Medals will be awarded to participants for 1st- and 2nd-Place Male and Female athletes in the Alpha category only.
