Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training-9/29/14

I finally attempted the full Murph. Many of you who have read this blog witnessed my many half Murphs that I incorporated into these work outs. This time I was ready to tackle the real thing.

So, here is what I did last night. The entire event took 48 minutes:
1 mile run (6:48)

did the following for a total of 40 repetitions each
10 pull ups
10 squats
10 push ups

Did the following to complete a total of 50 pull ups
5 pull ups
5 push ups
15 squats
5 push ups

Performed the following until completed a total of 200 push ups
5 push ups
15 squats
5 push ups

Continued until completed a total of 300 squats

1 mile run (6:27)

In the world of Cross Fit, which I do not claim membership, there are many versions of the Murph. So many versions that I'm not sure if what I did was actually a Murph as intended, a sanctified version of the Murph or some disqualified version. There is a lot of speak about partitions, sequence and etc. Also, some say it's not a Murph unless you have a 25 pound vest. I did not use a vest. In fact, I barely weigh over 25 pounds myself.
