5. Bush Ran The Houston Marathon In A Very Respectable 3 Hours and 44 Minutes... The First Person Elected President To Have Completed A 26.2-Mile Race
In 1993, Bush complete the Houston Marathon in an extremely respectable time of 3hours and 44minutes. That ensured that when he was elected to office in 2001, he became the first US President to have run a 26.2-mile at some point in their life.
