- Deportes
Mike Jay is a diehard track & field and cross country fanatic, and when it comes to his garage: it’s a shrine for those sports he loves. Surrounding his grandfather’s 1963 Chevy II are walls covered with memorabilia commemorating the events he has been a part of, signed gifts from athletes/coaches he adores, and press box signage he may or may not have snuck out of the venue in his bag.
So, when it comes to a “studio” to host a track & field and cross county centered podcast – The Garage is the perfect spot! Whether you, too, are a T&F/XC fan, or someone wanting to know more about the folks involved in these sports: this podcast should be a great listen for you. We hope you enjoy the episodes we have to offer. Thanks for listening!
