Memorial Day 2011 at OCFA Headquarters we will be holding the Orange County Trevor WOD for cooling vests. In addition we will also be holding a "Murph" Challenge.
The workout "Murph" was written in memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.Michael Murphy was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor posthumously for his courageous actions on June 28, 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.
The workout "Murph" is:
- 1 mile Run
- 100 Pull-ups
- 200 Push-ups
- 300 Squats
- 1 mile Run
For time.
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.
The registration for the "Murph" Challenge is $200 and EACH participant registration fee donates ONE COOLING VEST!

The "Murph" Challenge will proceed after all teams have completed the Trevor at OCFA Headquarters on May 30, 2011. Time to start is approximately 12 noon.
