b'I was honored to host and record an episode with Zach recently. This is such a powerful episode. I reached out to Zach after finding out he completed the full distance triathlon in Lake Placid. Zach\\u2019s life changed on November 9, 2010 when he was in Afghanistan and IED explosion left him with no legs and missing fingers. This is quite remarkable that he lived through this IED explosion. I, myself, have been blown up by IEDs also in Afghanistan, but I was mounted in a vehicle, not on foot like Zach. Zach is a true hero. We talk about his story and the race at Placid. The most important thing I took away from this conversation is the great amount of gratitude he has for life, others, and his ability to be alive. He had a team help him prepare for the race and completed the race as well. Thank you so much Zach for your time, and I can\\u2019t wait to see you out on the race course next year in Lubbock, Texas!
