Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton's health records have been the subject of much media attention in recent days.

At 70 and 68 years of age respectively, the two are no longer spring chickens, and many wonder if they're up to the physical demands of the presidency.

But if physical fitness is indeed a qualification for the highest office in the land, it appears Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson would have both Clinton and Trump beat by a mile – literally.

Johnson, 63, has a very impressive fitness record, according to Men's Health.

He has completed four Ironman World Championship races, climbed Mount Everest – along with all the other highest mountains on all seven continents – and run 17 marathons in his lifetime, posting a personal best of 2 hours and 47 minutes.

For comparison, P90X macho man and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan's fastest marathon time is 4 hours and 1 minute.

    Nice was he infantry, rangers or airborne? Something that counted for more than flexing his muscles for the magazines?

    Doesn't matter Hillary is listed at 1.5 as her bridge jumping had lbecome a praying for water exercise, Some polls are calling it -1.5 this time for the wicked Witch. Trump is being hailed ad pulling even steven even and Johnson? Golly Gee whilikers he wasn't mentioned. Muscle flexing does attract a following though.
