PHOENIX (Reuters) - Republican John McCain will release 400 pages of medical records on Friday to try to put to rest lingering questions about his health and ability to handle the rigors of the presidency.

McCain will be 72 in August and the oldest American ever elected to a first presidential term if he wins the November election.

One source of concern about McCain for many Americans is his age, and McCain has sought to address any questions by pursuing a vigorous campaign, but until now has not released detailed information about his health.

He is doing so under tightly controlled circumstances on the Memorial Day holiday weekend. A small group of reporters will be allowed to study the documents for three hours at a hotel conference room near a branch of the Mayo Clinic in Arizona. They may take notes but cannot make copies.
