“Murph” – Monday May 27th 2019

Murph Logo

Each year for Memorial Day we host an Event at CrossFit Thermal called “Murph”.  Murph is a Hero workout, performed in the honor of Lt. Michael P Murphy, who was killed in the Kunar Province of Afghanistan in 2005.  Since we opened in 2013, we’ve hosted this workout unofficially to honor his sacrifice and the sacrifices of all service men and women killed in combat.  In addition it’s been a great event for our community bringing us all together in the spirit of Memorial Day for a great cause and a great workout.  This year, we’re getting ready early and plan to do even more for this amazing cause!

  1.  Go to the official site and register, you’ll be required to make a donation, but you’ll be registered as an official participant this way and receive a tee shirt and or hat.
  2.  Show up and participate – you don’t have to donate to honor the workout and the cause, come in and get after the WOD!

We hope to have all of our members at the gym on what’s sure to be an amazing workout and fun filled event!
