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.
Lt. Michael Murphy was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor on October 22, 2007, but his favorite WOD takes so long you really need a Saturday to do it…and a Sunday to recover. Every time we do this WOD, we just hope we can keep pushing hard enough!
