Old photo of Ray and his friend Rachel McLish

Back in the day Mr. America Ray Mentzer, (Mike Mentzer's brother) and Ms. Olympia Rachel McLish doing some cardio training on the beach, early in the day and probably hit the weights later in the day. Ray was also a windsurfer by the way. Rachel was the very first Ms. Olympia winner way back in 1980.

Ray Mentzer and Rachel McLish running on the beach in California?

Ray died 2001, 2 days after Mike Mentzer died. He was only 47 years old. He hade Bright's diseaes, which means kidney failure. It's unclear if it was suicide or the greef of his brothe. The plan was that He's brother would have given him one of his kidneys..

Rachel I believe lived a more healthy life and is still alive.
