Murph is a CrossFit Hero workout that stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of U.S. Navy SEAL Lt. Michael Murphy, who died heroically in the line of duty in Afghanistan on June 28, 2005.
Murph was introduced as a CrossFit Hero workout on Aug. 18, 2005, and has become a long-standing tradition observed by CrossFit and a broader global community of athletes. Thousands of CrossFit gyms program Murph each year on Memorial Day Weekend as a way to honor Lt. Murphy and all others who have served.
Since its inception in 2014, the Murph Challenge has served as the official annual fundraiser for the Lt. Michael P. Murphy Memorial Scholarship Foundation. Presented by Forged®,
this challenge has garnered substantial support, amassing over $2,000,000 in funds. These contributions have been pivotal in awarding numerous scholarships and the establishment of the Lt. Michael P. Murphy Navy SEAL Museum/Sea Cadet Training Facility in Long Island, New York.
