One more Mathis story

Mathis ran track and was quite athletic when he was in school, and contined to train while he was on the road.

Word got out one day that he was going out to the University of Nevada track in Reno to workout. At that time I lived not to far from the campus, and walked over.

The stands were pretty well filled mostly with girls, a nice crowd, just to see him workout.
