Written by . Published: May 30 2017

Chris Pratt and John Krasinski celebrated Memorial Day in England by taking the #MurphChallenge to honor Navy SEAL officer Michael P. Murphy.


Every Memorial Day weekend fitness fans across America perform an intense workout in his memory, and the two actors decided that an ocean and work commitments in the U.K. weren't going to stop them from taking part.

The challenge includes a one-mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats and another run while wearing a body vest.

"It’s a day like today when we commemorate those fallen heroes and say thanks for all you do to make our dreams come true," Chris said in a video after completing the challenge.
