"I do not take any day for granted.” Enduring some sweat and fatigue, The Murph Challenge is a different way to celebrate the holiday weekend. “It’s about pushing yourself past your physical limits and mental limits," said Owens. "I remember going through boot camp and I was just like ‘wow, this is a lot more mental than it is physical.'"
