My favorite gym teacher always had a witty comment and a smile. Many found memories of Bob McCallister. Great man and mentor.

I was a very slow runner but Coach McAllister kept me on the track team, which I always appreciated. I remember calisthenics in the gym, especially repetitions of what I recall as a burpee with a pushup. Brutal. We would have run through fire for that man, he was so motivating.
