The Murph Challenge

Get ready to push your limits at The Murph Challenge! This in-person event is all about strength, endurance, and grit. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just up for a tough workout, join us for a day of sweat, camaraderie, and serious fun. Don't miss out on this epic fitness challenge – it's your time to shine and crush those goals!


The Murph Challenge is an annual nationwide fitness and fundraising event held around Memorial Day to honor the legacy of Navy SEAL Lt. Michael P. Murphy and the sacrifice of all fallen service members. Participants complete the Hero Workout “Murph”—a demanding combination of a mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats, and another mile run—either individually or as a team, often while wearing a weighted vest. More than a workout, the challenge serves as a living memorial, uniting civilians, veterans, and active-duty service members in a shared act of remembrance and respect. Through registration and participation, athletes directly support the LT Michael P. Murphy Memorial Scholarship Foundation, which provides educational scholarships to children of fallen heroes in pursuit of higher education and purpose-driven lives (themurphchallenge.com).

Signing up for the Murph Challenge is a chance to stand shoulder to shoulder with the military community and show that sacrifice is never forgotten. Each repetition represents resilience, discipline, and the willingness to carry a small piece of the weight borne by those who serve and their families. For veterans and supporters alike, the workout becomes deeply personal—an opportunity to honor friends, family, and brothers- and sisters-in-arms through action, not just words. When you take on Murph, you’re not just testing physical limits; you’re helping preserve legacy, support Gold Star families, and send a clear message that service, commitment, and sacrifice still matter
