Pope Francis is in astonishingly good shape at 87
Aleteia
A few days after returning from his 12-day tour of Asia and Oceania — the longest trip of his pontificate, both in terms of days and distance — Pope Francis seems in surprisingly good shape, despite his 87 years.
On September 18, 2024, as he does every Wednesday, Pope Francis presided over the general audience before thousands of faithful gathered in St. Peter’s Square. Arriving in his popemobile, he drove through the crowd, smiling and stopping regularly to bless the children.
