Coach Robbie spent the weekend at one of our C26 Team Races, Des Moines 70.3, and today we look at the racing experience. We talk about the little things that make the weekend a lot more fun for athletes and spectators, including, where to stay, how to spectate and what kind of little things make a big difference. By all accounts, Des Moines did it right and it was a bit of a positive surprise on a lot of levels.
