Angie is one of the CrossFit benchmark "Girl" WODs (because of the name, not because they are designed for women). It first appeared on the CrossFit website on August 18, 2003, though it had not yet been named. The workout did not appear in its current version until 26 July, 2004.

1 mile Run

100 Pull ups

200 Push ups

300 Squats

1 mile Run

Break up the Pull ups, Push ups, and Squats as needed. You must start and end with the 1-mile Runs.

40:04 Rx - (2:17 PR)



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.

A warship bearing the name of the Medal of Honor recipient was christened Saturday May 7th, 2011 — on what would have been Murphy's 35th birthday — at Bath Iron Works, where the destroyer was built.

"Erida"...

Erida: The Goddess Hate

AMRAP 15:

Max Reps Wall Balls (20)

400M Run

5 rounds - 60 reps

Wall Balls: 12-10-10-10-18 (rep scheme ends when you get a "no rep" or ball hits the ground)


Erida: The Goddess Hate

The wearisome goddess, Erida, or Hate, can best be invoked by reading the opening lines of Book 11 of The Iliad. After Dawn sheds her gentle light on mortals and immortals alike, Zeus sends Hate to the encampment of the Akhaians (Achaians). She stands on the centermost of the beached vessels and SCREAMS!!! The hearts of the soldiers are hardened as they awaken. They no longer remember their fathers or their wives and children. They rise from their beds with Hate ringing in their ears. In their hearts, they long for the sweetness of battle. Only blood will dispel the sanguine thrust of Hate.

Hate entered into the battle, small at first, but as she strode forward, she grew and grew, until her head reached the heavens. She cast down bitterness and vile hatred on both armies as she moved through the fighting. Sister and companion of the brutal war god, Ares, her wrath is unyielding (Iliad, book 4, line 440).
