Description

Murph Day 2021 at CrossFit Austin! **NOTE - shirt design is the concept - final design may look slightly different** While many other gyms have adopted Memorial Day for their Murph Day events, however we have always held ours closer to the day he gave his life (June 28, 2005). We are continuing that tradition this year and we are proud to say that this is our 12TH YEAR hosting our Murph Day event!  CrossFit Austin will be hosting Murph Day Saturday (6/26/2021) honoring the memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy and all fallen veterans. Lieutenant Murphy was killed in Afghanistan on June 28th, 2005. This workout was one of Mike's favorites and he named it "Body Armor". We will honor a 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.
