Murph Challenge (Hero WOD)

Murph Challenge (Hero WOD)

*Cue Climactic Music* It’s that time of year again - the Murph Hero WOD!

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.

For time:
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Squats
1 mile Run

Wear a Weight Vest (20/14 lb)
Partition the Pull-Ups, Push-Ups, and Air Squats as needed

Thank you to all of our United States Service Members who’ve served our country and made the ultimate sacrifice - we honor your legacy and contributions.

Park WOD

  • Winnemac Park (Southwest Corner by the Playground) (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Spring has sprung in Chicago (finally), and we’re itching to get outdoors and soak up some vitamin D with our fitness! It’s still a little crisp out, so we’ll be in the park instead of the beach. Keep an eye out for more exciting opportunities to shake up your WODs as things continue to heat up over the next few months!

For now, join us for our first outdoor WOD of the year at Winnemac Park in the southwest corner by the playground - just bring yourself and don’t forget some water!
