Murph Challenge Presented by Training for Warriors and Shoes & Brews

The Murph Challenge in Longmont - Memorial Day - Monday, May 29th, 2023

Neighbors -  Training for Warriors and Shoes & Brews have joined forces to raise awareness and challenge our community. Our goal is to honor all of our fallen, but in particular those who called our community home. In the post 911 era Longmont has lost four of our own on foreign soil. Their sacrifices and memories are why we celebrate Memorial Day.

ALL FOR A GOOD CAUSE - let's do a workout together! Everyone is welcome! Spectators and participants alike! It's a day to celebrate and our support crew is just as important!

Workout Details: 

The Murph Challenge is as follows: 

1 Mile Run

100 Pull-Ups

200 - Push-Ups

300 Squats

1 Mile Run

Now - you can take on that challenge by yourself, you can team up with someone, you can modify to shorter reps, or you can do a half (Murphette).

The important thing is we are out doing it together! Pulling together to honor those who serve us so bravely. A day to push yourself and celebrate that sacrifice. 

The Murph Challenge is the Official annual fundraiser of the LT. Michael P. Murphy Memorial Scholarship Foundation. Although the event is free, you can donate upon registration or donate day of! It is important to remember that The Murph Challenge is more than just a workout. It is a tradition that helps push us, humble us, and allows us the opportunity to dedicate a bit of pain and sweat to honor LT. Michael P. Murphy (SEAL), a man who sacrificed everything he had for our freedom. Join us this year as we continue to help keep his legacy alive through The Murph Challenge campaign.

We will have two start times, but you can come early to cheer others on, and you can stay late to cheer on those after you!

Starting heats between 8 AM and 9 AM. You select which works best for you that day or show up 20 minutes before race day to get registered. 

After - we sweat - Shoes & Brews is opening up for the FIRST TIME EVER on Memorial Day for this event only! We want to reward those who come out to support this event and work hard to honor our veterans. 

Expect - drink specials, lots of high fives, a photo booth, and some special raffle giveaways for anyone who comes out to support and celebrate that day!

Spectators and participants are both welcome at the workout and encouraged to come out and cheer loudly for those taking on the challenge. #morecowbell
