It’s been a jam-packed winter at CrossFit Good Fortune! We kicked off our brand-new Nutrition Program, teamed up with Prepped to bring you delicious, ready-to-go meals, cheered on the Providence Bruins together, and saw our biggest turnout ever for the Intramural Open!

MURPH Hero Workout & Cookout: Sunday 5/25
Similar to last year, we will be running MURPH on Sunday 5/25. Following the last heat, we’ll have a cookout at the gym. We’re going to bring the grill down & will offer a variety of food options. We’ll have more details in the next few weeks on heats, scaling options & additional logistics to ensure a smooth event.
For those that may not be familiar with MURPH, below is some information on the origin of MURPH as well as the MURPH Challenge. This is a workout that CrossFit affiliates & other gyms throughout the world complete over Memorial Day weekend to honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
“In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan, June 28, 2005. This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it ‘Body Armor.’ From here on, it will be referred to as ‘Murph’ in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.”
For time:
Run 1 mile
100 pull-ups
200 push-ups
300 squats
Run 1 mile
Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. If you’ve got a 20-lb vest or body armor, wear it.
