The late author John Jerome was said to have a curiousity that was inexhaustible. One of the things he was curious about was how to achieve athletic perfection. His book "The Sweet Spot in Time" went in search of that very thing. Today on Endurance Planet, a Breakaway Friday edition, we hear an audio excerpt from the chapter of Jerome's book entitled "Sweat." If you're looking for athletic improvement, not to mention perfection, you have to begin with some sweat.
