Poor Tom. The glute cramp got him and got him bad! When coaching a class and you see someone on the floor, mid interval with one foot still in the rower you immediately think the worst. However, once you realise its only cramp, you continue to pull the handle for them so they at least get something from it.

Let’s hope the same thing didn’t happen to him while riding his motorbike to work! It’s a lesson for us all kids… eat your salt and drink your water!

I call a massive amount of bullshit to the Friday the 13th unlucky thing…

Murph is done for another year, with a bunch of you legends doing it with a vest for the first time, more reps, longer runs and alternative partitions all with the goal of eventually going RX. Just like the big dogs! The only likely difference will be the time! BKG won Murph in 2015, unpartitioned in a time of 38:36. Wild! Sam Briggs also went sub 40!

In other news, you lot who all kicked arse in Pembroke over the weekend, massive kudos! Absolute legends!

Tuva’s team “motivational” musing have been hailed as some of the best to date!

Massive props to Nicole, Hannah & Meg for winning! Such studs!

In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 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.

Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you've got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.

Run 1 mile
100 Pull ups
