No! We are offering plenty of options to create a “pull” exercise that you can substitute for pull-ups. When you register, you have the option of selecting the “Modified Murph”. This will assure that you have access to TRX and other equipment to assist you with pull-ups, rows, or a combination of the two!

Absolutely! Our trainers will meet with you and provide you with a training plan based on your current fitness level. We will also do check-ins and offer a practice run halfway through. In addition, we are offering discounts on personal training, so if you are looking to improve your fitness a little more quickly, we would love to set you up with a trainer!

Absolutely not! The Murph Challenge is all about pushing yourself and supporting a GREAT cause. Most participants choose not to wear the vest their first time (or even every time) and there is nothing wrong with that at all! You will still be able to say you completed the Murph Challenge!

Once everyone is registered, trainers will put together waves of participants, so everyone has an opportunity to do the Murph at a time that works for them. We will do the official challenge on the mornings of May 27th and June 3rd

Please wear workout clothes and appropriate shoes for the walk/jog/run. Bring a water bottle and a sweat towel. If you plan on using a weighted vest and have one, please bring it. If not, no problem. Either skip the vest, or we will have one for you to use!
