Proper shoes is key, but the most important thing for a new runner (IMO) is to take it easy. You won't go setting speed records in your first year. Running slow and easy will actually improve your speed (look up aerobic training for reference).

If someone wants to start running and can't afford proper running sneaks, PM me and I can send a used pair of size 11 men's shoes. I have a lot that have anywhere from 200-500 miles on them but they're better than using regular shoes for running.

The Duffy gene is supposed to protect against Malaria. I understand Fya- Fyb- people are immune against a form of malaria. Do you see Malaria being irradicated through evolution in your country?As Darwin would say, survival of the fittest in that individuals with the Fya-Fyb- phenotype would prosper and procreate.

Do you currently do phenotyping testing to see prevalence of Fya-Fyb- individuals?

Have any studies explored the use of CAR-T cells for skin cancer? I know there are limitations when using these therapies for solid organ tumors, has any work been done for skin cancer?
