CrossFit 864 – WOD 0900 Only

Happy Memorial Day!

Be on your guard: stand firm in the faith: be men of courage: be strong.
-1 Corinthians 16:13

“It doesn’t take a hero to order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who goes into battle.”
-General Norman Schwarzkopf / also known as “Stormin’ Norman” and “The Bear”, is a retired United States Army General who, while he served as Commander of U.S. Central Command, was commander of the Coalition Forces in the Persian Gulf War of 1991.

“Murph”

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

Give Honor and respect to all those to whom it is due.
-Romans 13:7

In memory of Navy SEAL 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.

Start and finish with a mile run. If you’ve got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.

For he who is least among you all will be great.
-Luke 9:48

Train Hard – Train Smart

HYDRATE! Drink plenty of water before you get to the gym.

Looking forward to an awesome group of CrossFitters hitting it extra hard as always and showing honor and patriotism!
