WOD - 20110530



"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.


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.

Some of you may find it interesting that Lt Murphy's cousin is married to one of the members of the 488IS and i was deployed when this happened and i flew several missions looking for the sole survivor of the mission...also, "Murph" was one of the first CrossFit workout i ever attempted...and failed to complete...it seems 100 years ago.Happy Memorial Day, I'll be home in about 10 days.  Post time to comments.
