Memorial Day Murph with MDC - Long Lake

Mark your calendars for the 9th Annual Memorial Day Challenge!

Join us in Long Lake for one of the most amazing and inspiring fitness events of the year. Over the past 8 years, gyms from all across the twin cities have come together as one community to participate in Murph with MDC.

In honoring our veterans, while putting our fitness to the test, we've raised over $125,000 for local Veterans' Charities.

Are you up for the challenge? Grab your gym members, your friends and family, and join us this year. You don't want to miss it.

Registration for Memorial Day Murph Challenge opens March 1st. Head over to our website www.memorialdaychallenge.com (or link in bio) for information on Sponsorship Opportunities, Event Divisions, MDC Partnerships and to see some of the inspiring photos and videos from previous years.
