Johnson: No Regrets On Second Run, But I'm Done As A Candidate For Office

Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson

Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson says he has no regrets about running for president for the second time and finishing a distant runner-up as a Libertarian candidate.

He's already talking about his next challenge and it won't be another try for public office.

The 63-year-old Johnson says he plans to be on a bicycle, riding nearly 3,000 miles along the Continental Divide from Canada down into New Mexico sometime in early June.

Johnson told the Albuquerque Journal  (http://bit.ly/2g84jd7) that he is dedicating himself to health and fitness.

He says he may stay politically active, but not as a candidate.

Johnson says he'll leave that to others.
