Zachary White
ABOUT ME:
Zach got his first real introduction into mountaineering in the Pacific North West. By the end of his first season, he had bagged most of the peaks in the area and set his sights on international summits. He then went on to run ultra-marathon adventure races to get his mind and body stronger for higher and more challenging peaks. He's been skiing since he could walk and when he's not mountaineering you can find him surfing, cycling, running, golfing, scuba diving, swimming, or planning for the next expedition.
While working a professional career, Zach takes advantage of any and all team building and leadership trainings he can get his hands on. He thrives off working in teams both in professional environments and on the mountain!
PROUDEST ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
1. Placing first in my first ultra-marathon and 2nd in my second ultra-marathon (50 miles and 100 miles respectively)
2. Finding the balance between professional work life and one that fits my personal goals to be a stronger climber and leader in the mountains
3. Training for and finishing the Moab 240 in under 4 days in 2020 – my only race of the year.
4. Achieving Ironman All World Athlete silver status in my first year of triathlon, having no previous experience in triathlon
5. Sharing what knowledge I've learned with friends and family so we can share
more amazing experiences together
