Zach Polega — From U.S. Army Ranger School to Running Across America - Grit, Leadership, and Doing Hard Things

🎙 Episode 10 Zach Polega — From Ranger School to Running Across America - Grit, Leadership, and Doing Hard Things

Show Notes:

In this episode, I’m joined by Zach Polega - West Point graduate, U.S. Army Ranger, endurance athlete, and someone who literally ran across the United States.

We dive into:

  • What it takes to earn the Ranger tab and lead through adversity
  • Lessons in grit and growth from his time at West Point
  • How military training shaped his mindset as an athlete
  • The story behind the 3,000-mile relay run across America
  • Why suffering, community, and service go hand in hand

This one’s about leadership under pressure, embracing the suck, and doing hard things for something bigger than yourself.

Whether you're in the middle of a tough training block or just trying to find your purpose, Zach’s story will light a fire.
