NATION : Bush Goes Like 65 on Birthday Jog
<i> From Times wire services </i>
WASHINGTON —
President Bush took a lunchtime birthday jog today “to show that 65 can still do three miles.”
The temperature was 77, the humidity was 60% and Bush’s T-shirt was soaked with presidential sweat by the time he finished his jog at Ft. McNair, an Army base in southwest Washington.
“I wanted to show that 65 can still do three miles,” Bush huffed.
He reached into his limousine for a plastic bag containing ice and cans of orange soda, tossed a soda to an aide and had one himself.
