Mike Ergo served as a Marine rifleman with 1st Battalion, 8th Marines from 2001-2005 and deployed to Iraq twice. Coming home from combat was rough and his body returned, but his mind and spirit were still in Fallujah for many years. His story is truly inspirational.

During the week, Mike works as a readjustment counselor and helps fellow combat veterans make positive changes in their own lives.  In his spare time, when he isn't being a father and a husband, Mike trains for Ironman competitions which he runs for Gold Star Families. He also hosts two podcasts, "Transitions From War" which is geared towards veteran transition and "AGE Groupies" which is for those interested in all things Triathlons.
