“MURPHâ€
So if you don’t know who LT. Michael P. Murphy was, please read:
LT. Michael P. Murphy (SEAL) was the officer-in-charge of a four-man SEAL element in support of Operation Red Wings, tasked with finding a key anti-coalition militia commander near Asadabad, Afghanistan. A fierce gun battle ensued on the steep face of the mountain between the SEALs and a much larger enemy force. Moving away from the protective mountain rocks, he knowingly exposed himself to increased enemy gunfire to radio his position to SOF Quick Reaction Forces. Though injured, LT. Murphy fought on, allowing one member of his team (Marcus Luttrell) to escape, before he was killed. For his selfless actions, LT. Michael Murphy was posthumously awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor on October 27, 2007. We honor his sacrifice and memory though The Murph Workout.
Every time you do this workout, remember.

If you have been around End Of Three Fitness long (or short) you probably know we like Murph. We have touched base on how to not suck at it, and have even completed it once a week for an entire year.
I both challenge and encourage you to take this on for Memorial Day. Even if you have to scale it to half Murph (8oom, 50, 100, 150, 800m) or a variation of that, just give it a shot, and invite some friends!
