Join us this Memorial Day in honoring the real American heroes, Lt. Michael Murphy and all of the brave men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice on behalf of our Great Nation!
We'll be completing "Murph”, the CrossFit Hero WOD with the first wave beginning at 9am. We'll have both the full and scaled versions for all abilities and fitness levels to participate!
And be sure to stick around afterwards for some family friendly fun and enjoy some smoked barbeque compliments of Chef Scott Burke.
We would love to have you come kick off your Memorial Day with us. Bring your friends and family to check it out, grab a bite to eat and get in a great workout.
Absolutely no cost to participate. Message us for more information or go to starboardcrossfit.com to get started.
NAMED WORKOUTS
There are two categories of benchmark CrossFit workouts: “Girl” workouts and “Hero” workouts. The former includes beasts like Nancy and Fran, and the latter are named after military, law- enforcement, and civil-service personnel who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
CrossFit headquarters created a workout named in these people’s honor, and the CrossFit community pays tribute to the fallen by completing the challenging workouts to the best of their ability.
WHO WAS “MURPH”?
"Murph" is a Hero workout named in honor of U.S. Navy Lt. Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, NY, a Navy SEAL killed in Afghanistan on June 28, 2005. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
