Miscellaneous
Micah Murphree grew up doing hard work on a farm and in sports. As a youth pastor and father of three, he has a passion for developing respectful young men and instilling resilience. When he suddenly found himself out of bounds where he wanted to be physically, he took action – looking to lead by example with passion and perseverance. Micah got moving, he reframed his language and mindset, and committed to some big goals. In the process he reawakened a long term vision for creating a sustainable business that would serve others in need. That vision has come to life as Grit Army – making relentlessly designed, high quality compression socks for obstacle course racing and other athletic apparel and with proceeds supporting a program for children in the Dominican Republic. “Let’s create an army of people that come together, that are pushing each other, encouraging each other, and working toward a goal of getting rid of excuses in life. Think about how much better we could all be in every aspect if we just throw out excuses and work towards grit. “ – Micah Murphree
