Episode 912
Tuesday, 17 March, 2026
C26 had a good crew in Dallas for Little Elm 70.3, including Coach Robbie, and today he details his experience on the course. We get into whether the cancelled swim was warranted, the gnarly wind on the bike course, and the three loop run. We look at strategy for when the swim is cancelled. How to ride a course that's tailwind vs. headwind, and why sometimes you just have to let it rip on the run. Robbie goes over the entire race venue and experience and even has some interesting perspectives on the post-race food for the first time 70.3 :) Topics: Snowmaggedon Windmaggedon Cold water in Dallas What's the venue like?
