Low numbers as expected …. Whether Covid, colder weather rain expected ( only to arrive just as we finish COT, fartsackers!!!!), or other concerns. Two of us veterans of the Murph 2 never having done one …. Excellent!! Brief disclaimer that this is only a trial run through … so not harm or push self too hard. Begin with pledge and then stretch up and back and side to side. Plank position for IC 15 count of shoulder taps. Mosey around to park, in and around avoiding forested area and complete almost 1 mile ( we would complete 2.07 according to EZ Rider for the workout)
Set up parameters and give explanation of The Murph: having completed the first mile we know what we face at the end …. Nows the fun stuff: all choose chalk pieces to hash out their achievements. We all use 10/20/30 technique and all remained consistently close as this strong pax completed half of the beat down! Great work men!
It should be noted that this months Men’s Health has a great article about this workout, Michael Murphy and alternate ways to achieve goals with similar exercises
Keep practicing and show up Memorial Da y 2021 at 7:00
Prayers for Turtleman and EZ Rider
Earlier this year I spoke with Spider-Man who told me that he had done a Murph workout and I felt that that would be a great workout to do only I was not sure of mileage from Snoballs …. Having guesstimated quite well I feel that this will return in the future!
Day: May 12, 2021
Got to ingles this morning and it felt good! We all gathered and then headed out to log some miles. Little did I know I would lose my key while taking a pit stop to poop!
We got about 2.5 miles into our run and I told Seuss I had to hit the woods. So I run out into the woods over behind rabbits store in Dallas and made a huge mess!!! I had to use the toilet paper I run with, my shirt and my underwear!! Son of a gun it was bad men! Well I clean up… well I thought I did and took off back down the road. I make it to the truck and realize I have lost my truck key while I was brutalizing the woods. I took back off down the road and had to call my wife to come get me cause I was rubbed raw so bad I couldn’t run anymore.
My awesome wife shows up I jump in the car I look down at my shoes and legs to find crap all over myself!!! It was nasty but super funny!!
I never found my key so I’m waiting on the locksmith now but I did learn something. Carry more toilet paper and when you have a raw crack it burns to the next level in a hot shower!!!
