Today we honor those that lost their lives while serving to protect others. You will have the option to perform either “Murph” or “Morrison”. You will have the option to do the full workout, 1/2 of either workout or you pick a partner and perform it as a team.
Reminder: Only one WOD tomorrow at 9:30am.
“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”. From here on 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.

Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
Box jump, 24 inch box
