Each hour, on the hour, Tom will perform what is known in the CrossFit world as a “Murph”, which includes a one mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats and a further one mile run.
The rest of the hour will be for rest and preparing for the next round.
Tom and the team at Eleven Eleven Sports Performance are inviting residents to join them by taking on one of the workouts.
