In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael P. Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, NY, who was killed in Afghanistan June 28, 2005. A U.S. Navy SEAL officer, Murphy was awarded the U.S. military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his actions during the War in Afghanistan. His other posthumous awards include the Silver Star Medal (which was later upgraded to the Medal of Honor) and the Purple Heart.
The "Murph" Hero WOD was originally posted on the CrossFit Main Site as the workout of the day for Thursday August 18, 2005 (050818), where the post said "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."
"Murph" has become one of the most famous CrossFit workouts, globally, especially as a tribute on U.S. Memorial Day (the last Monday of May), when the workout is sometimes referred to as "Memorial Day Murph".

0500 class, beat the heat!
Josh in 46:45 with 20# vest
Andrew in 39:40 w/o vest (think he was down to knee pushups towards the end)
Last year I did Murph with the Teens class down the street, 5pm in the afternoon; the heat almost crushed me. Pre-dawn is the way to go.
Hats off to the CFHSV staff for re-wickering how we do Murph this year under COVID guidelines.

Whew, this was a tough one! Thanks Nathaniel for coaching us all the way to the end, to Dave who wouldn’t quit with me, and to Carolyn for running the last mile with me after she had already finished! ?♀️❤️
