Fight for Iowa - Mike Jay
About this episode
Mike Jay shares his experiences and insights from decades in track and field announcing.
This week on the Fight for Iowa podcast, we step onto the track with one of the most recognizable voices in the sport — legendary track and field announcer Mike Jay. From the Iowa High School State Track & Field Championships to the Drake Relays, NCAA Championships and Olympic Trials, Jay’s voice has become synonymous with some of the sport’s biggest moments. A Columbus Junction native, Jay has spent decades around the sport as a runner, coach and elite announcer, earning national recognition in 2014 as the Track & Field Writers of America’s top track announcer. But beyond the microphone, Jay’s passion is rooted in the athletes, families and communities that make track and field special. In this episode, Jay shares stories from a lifetime in the sport, what makes Iowa track unique, and how he’s continuing to give back through the Track Guy Foundation.
