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.

RIP Murph and all others that have made the ultimate sacrifice. I dedicated this year's Murph to a pair of fallen college classmates:
- CPT Bartt Owens, KIA in the Philippines during operations against Abu Sayef Group, Feb 2002
- MAJ Jason George, KIA in Iraq, May 2009

My boys and I accomplished Murph this past Thursday at CFHSV Kids, courtesy of Coach Misty:
- Andrew Kennedy (16yo), 47:45
- Luke Kennedy (14 yo), 51:25
- Dad in 56:34 in 20# vest

Good luck to all who throw down in the heat for Murph.

Thank you for your service and your sacrifice, Murph. First year in a long time I’m unable to participate today, but I know all my CFHSV family honored those fallen with the utmost respect. ??

For the men and women & their families who have given all, thank you!
TO CFHSV family who have served thank you for the sacrifice you have given for us all.
Howard thank you for the assist. Not sure the beard and I would have made it without the push!
89:28 but did the pull ups. By the way the beard did not help at all.
