Bernie Sanders Has An Impressive One Mile PR

Today we learned Bernie Sanders probably ran a faster mile than you in high school.

He is a candidate for President of the United States in the 2016 U.S. presidential election representing the democratic party, but he also boasts an impressive mile PR while running track & field in high school. 

"I came in third in my junior year in the New York City public school one mile. I think my best was 4:37, which is not superstar, but it's pretty good.", said Sanders. 

Bernie Sanders, who would be the oldest person ever elected president if he wins in 2016, said Sunday he's fit and ready for office after an interview with Politico.

"I believe, as somebody was when he was a kid a long-distance runner, Im blessed with endurance, Im blessed with health, added Sanders, who, if successful, would become the oldest person ever elected president. And we are going to do everything we can to A, win this campaign, and B, be as good a president as I possibly can be."

So we'll leave this as a lesson to some of our younger readers, work at your one mile PR and you might just have a chance at presidency.
