For what it's worth (which may not be much, considering the cavalier way
comics deal with their timelines and play revisionist history games),
according to the original X-Men episodes with the Juggernaut Prof. X
fought in Korea.  If he was ~18 in 1954, that makes him ~48 now.

Well, if anybody asked Claremont *et al* that question they'd probably fudge
by saying "well, he's got this new clone body and that's in much better shape
than the original was, even discounting the fact that the old one's legs were
broken and the new one's aren't."
