It is that time of year for our annual event honoring our fallen heroes that gave us the ability to live free while sacrificing their lives. During this event, we encourage participation in the CrossFit Murph challenge. This workout is a grueling test of physical and mental endurance that honors the sacrifice and service of Navy SEAL Lt. Michael Murphy along with all of our fallen heroes. The workout consists of a one-mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 pushups, 300 air squats, and another one-mile run - all this done while wearing a vest.

Understanding this can seem overwhelming as you read through the workout description, we encourage those participating to remember the sacrifice of our heroes to get the opportunity to do this workout in their honor. The best thing about CrossFit workouts like this is you can scale to meet yourself right where you are at to participate in this emotional event and be part of the community.

Our event will start with a heat at 5:30am and will consist of multiple heats afterwards ending with the Memorial Day parade as it passes the gym around 11am. Heats after 5:30am will be at 7am, 8:30an and 10am. Sign ups for each heat will be available at the gym of if you’re registering online there will be “classes” at each heat time. Just click on that specific heat time you’d like to go and put your name down!
If you have little kids ages 7-13 that would like to participate in our “Mini Murph” we will run the kids heat at 10am.

We will have food available in the form of a pot-luck style lunch. The gym will have meat and fruit as well as lots of water. If you’d like to participate just bring a dish to pass!

Lastly, t-shirts available for this event: we have already placed an order and those will be available for pickup morning of the race. Existing members can choose to have their account charged or they can pay the day of for their already ordered shirt but we will have an extra order form if you decide to participate and want a trophy to prove you conquered this challenge!
