John Quincy Adams

J.Q Adams is a very tough case to analyze. The son of John Adams was 58 when he took office as the United States’ 6th President and like his father he stood 5 feet 7 inches tall and never served in any wars. While the immediate information may make it seem like I would have no trouble with Quincy Adams, that would not be the case. Quincy Adams, often regarded as one of our smartest Presidents, was also one of the most physically fit. The man took a five mile walk every day, followed by a swim in the Potomac River, no matter what the temperature. So this fight would certainly be a close one, but seeing as I get at least as much exercise in as Adams did during my swim practices, and have the advantage of height and youth, I’m gonna give myself this one in our most tightly contested bout yet.
