The First Death of an Athlete

 

 

Failure is something athletes face every day of their careers. Every stroke, every swing, every race is a lesson in failure and success. This week we talk with LPGA champ and CBS sports broadcaster Dottie Pepper about preparation, goals, flexibility and the role of failure in the life of an athlete.

Pepper's new book about her mentor, George Pulver, is called Letters to a Future Champion. 

In this episode, Pepper references Anne Lamott's book, Bird by Bird.
