Summary

Memorial Day is an opportunity to pay our respects to those who have served and sacrificed.  Many choose to do a tough workout on this day and the most iconic is the Murph Workout which honors Lt Michael Murphy.  The Murph Workout is: Run 1 mile, 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 squats, Run 1 mile.  To do it as prescribed, wear a 20 lb vest.  As we approach Memorial Day, I wanted to visit this workout and offer some suggestions to scale down for those who are not ready for this volume or scale up for those who want a real challenge.  We also go over the reason that Lt Michael Murphy was awarded the Medal of Honor as well as the story of Operation Redwing.
