The workout known as MURPH is in memory of Michael P. Murphy. Michael "Murph" Murphy was a United States Navy SEAL
who served during the War in Afghanistan. Murphy was killed in action during Operation Red Wings. Murphy was awarded the U.S. military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor.
Every year in memory of Michael P. Murphy people gather on
Memorial Day to attempt The MURPH Challenge which consists of a 1 mile run, 100 pull ups, 200 push ups, 300 air squats and finishes with 1 mile run.
Sign up in the YMCA 360 app where you can complete the workout on your own or sign up for a group time slot.
Participate as an individual or split up the reps to workout as a team or family. There will be modifications available and the weight vest is optional but you will need to provide your own.
