Month 2 of keeping my resolution to do Murph (the Hero workout named after Lieutenant Michael Murphy who died fighting for our freedoms) once a month. It consists of 1 mile run, 100 pull ups, 200 push ups, 300 air squats, and then another 1 mile run.
My first mile run was slow because of my 5k yesterday. But I made up the time in the pull-ups and push ups by taking no breaks. My second mile run was probably about average. I PR’ed but can definitely get my time down by trimming time on the runs on both ends.
It was a gorgeous morning. About 50 degrees out (perfect when you’re wearing a weight vest!). Quiet. The moon was out during my first mile and then the sky was pink during my second. I am so grateful for the life I lead.
what is an air squat?

Just a normal squat with no weights. A body-weight squat in other words.

Do you do 300 in a row without stopping?

No, I break it up. I do some pull ups, push ups, and squats in rounds to add up to the totals

Okie dokie… it would take me a while to get up to 300, actually squats are doable, it’s the push ups and pull ups that have got me worried. 🙂
