Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on the world of professional race announcing with none other than Steve Fleck – one of the leading endurance sports announcers and commentators in North America. If you've ever crossed the finish line at a major race, chances are you've heard his energetic and insightful voice bringing the moment to life.
Beyond calling the action at running, triathlon, and cycling events, Steve is also a sought-after corporate emcee and a key figure in the race and event industry. In this episode, we dive into what makes a great announcer, the evolving race experience, and some of Steve’s most memorable finish-line moments. We also get a little nerdy about the future of Canadian distance running – are we in a boom? Who’s coming up through the ranks? And what will it take for Canada to be even more competitive on the world stage?
Whether you're a runner, a race director, or just someone who loves the energy of live events, this episode is packed with insights and behind-the-scenes stories.
