Interview with Mark Ryall, author of 'Run Daughter, Run Father' and 'Age Decoded.'

Key Points, Top Takeaways and Memorable Quotes - “The daughter initiated and the father followed.” 8:50“It's hard as a parent to just sort of separate yourself from them and do what's best for them, not what's best for you and makes you feel good.  You have to think of their long term future.” 12:37“You lose about one percent of your aerobic capacity per year on average at that age.” 25:25“They are very serious researchers that claim they will eradicate what they see as the ‘disease' of aging.” 27:29“That's actually how the two books tie in, right, is mortality, getting the most out of your life, if you're mortal, and we'll always be mortal.” 30:19“It's never too late to inject that into your life” 31:27“As you get older, you actually sleep a little less.” 39:16“I wish I had explored a little more, getting some assistance.” 51:12 Guest Bio -Mark Ryall recently retired from teaching economics at Hillfield Strathallan College in Hamilton, Ontario. His first love in coaching was always cross country running, a sport which he felt made students stronger mentally and physically, and which promoted teamwork and mutual support. The speculative fiction Age-Decoded is Mark's first novel. He wrote it to educate himself and the world about the imminent tsunami of genetic engineering. CRISPR-like technology will impact humans in physical and psychological ways, thus fundamentally affecting what it means to be human. The story peers 100-200 years into the future, allowing the reader to critically imagine this new scientific frontier. Mark has also just published his second book, Run Daughter, Run Father, which provides stories, anecdotes, and scientific advice on running and racing. It highlights the training adventures of him and his daughter Stephanie, whom Mark coached and ran with. The insights are targeted at younger and older age-group competitors. Mark also competes in triathlons and represented Canada in the 2019 World Age-Group Championships in Lausanne, Switzerland. He also recently qualified for the World Age-Group Championships in Spain in 2023.  As hobbies, Mark enjoys acrylic art and snooker. His education includes BSc, MBA, and PhD (University of Toronto). Show Notes - 0:00 - WIMTS Podcast Intro0:32 - Introducing Mark Ryall1:03 - Welcome to Mark Run Daughter, Run Father1:26 - Athletic Background3:16 - Cross Country & Running Marathons7:01 - ‘Run Daughter, Run Father' by Mark Ryall16:32 - Lessons from Your Book19:35 - Running for Time23:52 - Master's Competitions & ‘Age-Decoded' Book25:53 - BB Commercial26:02 - Interesting Research Findings30:34 - Staying Content in a Long Term Athletic Career33:00 - My Failure at the Last World Games in Switzerland 38:28 - Other Pillars of Health Outside of Training for Aging Athletes39:58 - What is Snooker?41:32 - Swimming Discussion45:58 - Runner's High50:48 - One Piece of Advice 55:45 - Daughter's Role in Writing the Book56:22 - New Writing Concepts57:27 - Where Can People Find You?58:49 - Thank You59:32 - WIMTS Podcast Closing Links & Where to Find Mark - Book:  https://books2read.com/b/4jqeVY?edit=maybe-laterQuora:  https://www.quora.com/profile/Mark-Ryall-2Run Free

What a fascinating episode.   Dr. Mark Ryall explains his book, a fiction, Age-Decoded, which is about genetic engineering technology and takes place in the future.  Mark says it's not "fantasy" science fiction, rather it is speculative science fiction based in the period of 2053 to 2256.When asked what inspired him to write this book, Mark says "well, I'm getting older".  :)  Also, being an athlete, he says he realizes how you do slow down as you age.   He was reading an article about genetic engineering and this is what led him to write this book.We discussed the pluses and minuses of genetic engineering and choosing to be age de-coded and not get any older, or reverse aging, which is also in his book.Very intriguing and a must listen to.You can find Mark on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook.  His book Age-Decoded is at most of the major retailers, Amazon, Apple, Kobo, and Indigo.More about Mark:Mark Ryall recently retired from teaching economics at Royal St. George's College (Toronto) and Hillfield Strathallan College (Hamilton) for a combined twenty-four years.

DR. MARK RYALL, a recently retired teacher/professor of Mathematics, Biochemistry, and Economics from Hamilton, Ontario, as well as a triathlete who has represented Canada in the World Age Group Championships, joined us to discuss his latest release, "Age-Decoded". FROM HIS BIO: "I published my novel "Age-Decoded" because of the many advancements in CRISPR genetic engineering. The book's central question is: What could possibly go wrong with the advent of genetic engineering? The story itself focuses on genomicist Dr. Frieda Sengmeuller, who uses CRISPR to finally stop human aging. But the government secretly uses her methods in other psychological ways, jeopardizing freedom and democracy. I feel this topic so important, given the impending tsunami of genetic engineering technology. A novel like mine enables readers to really imagine and feel the effects on humanity." https://www.quora.com/profile/Mark-Ryall-2

This week, John speaks to Mark Ryall, the author of Age-Decoded, a science fiction novel that explores a world in which aging can be cured and, in fact, reversed. In 1996, scientists announced the successful cloning of Dolly the Sheep. And, in 1997, the film Gattaca – a film very much in the same tradition of speculative science fiction as the subject of our last episode, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein – envisioned a world in which genetic engineering yielded genetic segregation. But while the decades since haven't given us much reason to heed its warnings, recently that's begun to change, with recent breakthroughs in the mechanics of aging, and a boom in the use of CRISPR gene-editing, including the 2018 announcement from a Chinese scientist claiming he had edited two human embryos to immunize them from HIV Ryall taught college economics and mathematics for twenty-two years. He wrote Age-Decoded in an effort to educate himself and the world about we he believes will be an imminent tsunami of CRISPR genetic engineering. And he believes this technology will fundamentally alter human nature, and that it must be carefully controlled and applied to serve humanity well.

Genetic engineering is about to explode and while many applications will be very positive we need to be careful, proceeding safely and humanely. We also need to question, who monitors its application and possibly decide when things go too far.

Meet our guest, https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-ryall-2b87b2b/ (Dr. Mark Ryall), author of the new speculative fiction book, Age-Decoded.  It took some struggle and two career changes before Mark Ryall discovered his “genuine self” as a teacher. He had always yearned for a career that brought him closer to people, and teaching became the natural place for him. He went on to teach economics and mathematics at Royal St. George's College (Toronto) and Hillfield Strathallan College (Hamilton) for a combined twenty-four years. He also loved coaching cross country running, a sport which he felt makes students stronger mentally and physically, and which promotes teamwork and mutual support. While teaching, he also began painting, specializing in acrylic art depicting historic old buildings and bridges in the Hamilton area, and more recently dabbling in sports portraits and landscapes. The speculative fiction Age-Decoded is Mark's first novel. He wrote the first draft about ten years ago while he was teaching, to educate himself and the world about the imminent tsunami of genetic engineering technology. The novel was turned down by traditional publishers, so Mark accepted that rejection and let the novel sit for several years. But with his recent retirement from teaching and the full-blown emergence of CRISPR-like technology on the scientific front, he decided to work hard to update and improve the novel. He finally self-published it two months ago. Mark feels Age-Decoded is important because genetic engineering will impact human physical and psychological traits − fundamentally affecting what it means to be human. His goal is to educate people about this scientific breakthrough. Many effects will be hugely positive, as scientists work to eradicate diseases such as Alzheimer's, Huntington's, cystic fibrosis, HIV, sickle cell anemia, and even cancer. But unintended or intended negative effects are also possible with this technology. The story peers 100-200 years into the future, allowing the reader to critically imagine and feel the potential impact of genetic engineering on human nature. The story focuses on two human changes; one physical (stopping and reversing aging) and one psychological (spoiler alert: you will need to read the novel). Mark also competes in triathlons and represented Canada in the 2019 World Age-Group Championships in Lausanne, Switzerland. That race was a disaster as he never completed the swim due to “technical difficulties”! But he has vowed to redeem himself, to qualify and compete once again in the Championships sometime soon in the post-Covid era. Mark currently serves as a volunteer cross country coach for Westdale Secondary School in Hamilton. His education includes BSc, MBA, and PhD (University of Toronto, Education).

On This episode i talk with Author Mark Ryall. We talk about crispr technology and the keys it could hold also the ethics if it all? is it playing god ? well check it out and you decide? thanks for listening and I really appreciate everyone who shares the show ! you can find his book here: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FMark-P-Ryall%2Fe%2FB08Z45VZR1%253Fref%3Ddbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share&psig=AOvVaw3Q7_D923sF1hUu2WihULk9&ust=1633047187411000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAwQjhxqFwoTCPD50v20pfMCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD 

Recently retired economics teacher Mark Ryall. Age-Decoded is his first novel. It addresses the question: What could possibly go wrong with the advent of CRISPR genetic engineering technology? Genetic engineering is about to explode in our near-future world. Many applications will be very positive, such as possible eradication of Cystic Fibrosis, cancer, sight disorder, HIV, Alzheimers, to mention a few. However, as with any new technology, humans must be careful to harness it safely and humanely.  

Author Mark Ryall explores the exciting, and ethically daunting, world of genetic engineering in his novel, Age-Decoded. Focused on the current technology called CRISPR, he explores the wide variety of possibilities the technology opens up. It's a project that brings together his background in math and science as well as teaching. Our conversation digs into the technology, the unusual path to his first encounter with it, and how he used the novel format to delve into the opportunities and issues it presents. We also talk about how important it is to find what Mark calls your genuine self, especially if the path you're meant to be on isn't obvious to you.   Check out the show notes at fycuriosity.com, and join the conversation on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!

Dr Mark Ryall is a retired economics teacher, a competitive Canadian triathlete, and author of speculative fiction novel "Age-Decoded". Mark wrote his “Age Decoded” because of “the many advancements in CRISPR genetic engineering. The book's central question is: What could possibly go wrong with the advent of genetic engineering? The story itself focuses on genomicist Dr. Frieda Sengmeuller, who uses CRISPR to finally stop human aging. But the government secretly uses her methods in other psychological ways, jeopardizing freedom and democracy.” Mark says that: “[he] feels this topic so important, given the impending tsunami of genetic engineering technology. A novel like mine enables readers to really imagine and feel the effects on humanity.”  In this episode, Mark and I discuss some of the potential implications of genetic engineering; both the positive/beneficial side to this emerging technology as well as the potential negatives/dangers that may also arise.  Get a copy of “Age-Decoded”: https://books2read.com/age-decoded   More of Mark: LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-ryall-2b87b2b   Quora: https://www.quora.com/profile/Mark-Ryall-2   Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/21292342.Mark_P_Ryall   More of Shane:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shane-pokroy/    Instagram: https://instagram.com/shanepokroy/   Facebook: https://facebook.com/UndergroundAnticsPodcast/    Listen and subscribe to Underground Antics on your favourite podcast platform

Mark Ryall, author of Age Decoded, joins me to discuss his new book, his career in education, and we really get into the topic of genetic engineering. Mark talks about his love of teaching and how an unexpected foray into running with his young daughter bloomed into an intensely-competitive triathlon hobby, and how he never quite felt like he fit in at engineering school. Genetic engineering is a topic that is easy to get lost in. There are so many moral and ethical concerns, and it can be quite difficult to understand in the first place. Mark and I cover many of the ethical issues and offer some attempt to make sense of CRISPR and related technologies. Mark describes many of the aspects of his book, Age Decoded, and we even get to hear him read a couple lines from the text. Age Decoded is the story of what happens to humanity after we solve the problem of aging and eventually learn how to reverse it. The book is full of excitement, curiosity, and even some romance. It's a fun read and you really learn a lot about the possibilities of the future. Thanks for tuning in, I hope you enjoy it!

But his first love in coaching was always cross country running, a sport which he felt made students stronger mentally and physically, and which promoted teamwork and mutual support. The speculative fiction Age-Decoded is Mark's first novel. He wrote the first draft about ten years ago to educate himself and the world about the imminent tsunami of genetic engineering. CRISPR-like technology will impact humans in physical and psychological ways, thus fundamentally affecting what it means to be human. The story peers 100-200 years into the future, allowing the reader to critically imagine and feel this new scientific frontier. Mark also competes in triathlons and represented Canada in the 2019 World Age-Group Championships in Lausanne, Switzerland. He enjoys acrylic art, painting historic structures, landscapes, and sports portraits. He currently serves as a volunteer cross country coach for Westdale Secondary School in Hamilton. His education includes BSc (University of Waterloo), MBA (York University), and PhD (University of Toronto, Education).

Welcome to the 37th episode of the Give A Heck Podcast! Join Dwight Heck and his guest, Mark Ryall, as they talk about connecting with your genuine self. Mark worked as a college educator and public sector consultant before writing his first speculative fiction novel, “Age-Decoded.” He wrote the book to understand the inevitable rise of more technological advancements like CRISPR. Today, Mark shares his thoughts on how technology will alter the human condition and why it must only be developed to serve humanity. In this episode, you'll learn about: ● How to effectively adapt in life and affect change in others by caring for yourself first. ● Being who we pretend to be and why we must be careful who we choose to be. ● Choosing who you want to be and overcoming others' uncomfortableness of who you should be. ● The importance of affirmation and how it can help someone find their genuine self. ● Technological advancements as a significant pivot for humanity and how mortality gives us purpose. ● And much more! ~ About Mark Ryall: Mark Ryall taught economics and mathematics at Royal St. George's College, Toronto, and Hillfield Strathallan College, Hamilton, for a combined twenty-two years. "Age-Decoded" is his first novel. Mark wrote it to educate himself and the world about the imminent tsunami of CRISPR genetic engineering.

Discovering the fountain of youth has been the millennia-old dream of humans. We have seen it in the old stories of Herodotus to the Silicon Valley entrepreneurs talk about it. The gene-editing technology such as CRISPR has made possible of preventing diseases before it happens, which could eradicate many of the incurable illnesses we have today. However, it has also allowed us to dream once again to the possibility of eternal life. I've always in the belief that we try to maximize our time in our bodies because life is finite. What will we do with our lives if we can live forever? Will we cherish it or abuse it? In this episode, I speak with Mark Ryall, an independent researcher and author of the book "Age Decoded". We discuss the virtue of humanity and the need to examine what it means to live life. We are wired by default to think in short term but what if this becomes infinite? There is something more than eternal youthfulness and beauty beyond the lines of a finite life.Here is what we discuss in the episode;- Who is Mark Ryall and the inspiration of his book- What is CRISPR and gene editing- What is the significant and potential achievements of this technology- The ethical difference between preventing diseases and prolonging life- What does it mean for humanity to obtain eternal lifeSubscribe to my weekly/monthly newsletter here.Guest: Mark Ryall (LinkedIn)Host: Takatoshi Shibayama (LinkedIn | Twitter)Music: ShowNing (Website)

The guest for this podcast is Mark Ryall, an author who has written a sci-fi novel about reversing aging through genetic engineering. The title of Mark's book is Age-Decoded: They Conquered Aging but Imperiled Humanity. Of course, this is still fiction. Above all, it offers a dark look at the risks of stopping the aging process. And we look at the social and ethical costs of this technology. Is Reversing Aging Desirable? We discuss this first novel of Mark's. He shares with us what he learned about genetic engineering while doing research for his book. What are the moral challenges that humanity faces with this process? Even though this type of engineering is well into the future, we are very aware of the “battle against aging” that is very much in the present? And how did our guest's experience with starting triathlon training late in life influence his decision to write a novel about reversing aging? So, join us for a conversation about this fascinating and concerning age-related science to stop the natural process. Mini Bio Mark Ryall taught economics and mathematics at Royal St. George's College (Toronto) and Hillfield Strathallan College (Hamilton) for a combined twenty-four years.

Age-Decoded by Mark P Ryall What could possibly go wrong with the advent of CRISPR genetic engineering? This is the story of Nobel-winning genomicist Dr. Frieda Sengmeuller, who invents "age-decoding" – a genetic engineering method that stops human aging. When most humans are age-decoded in the year 2053, Authority leaders secretly use CRISPR to also remove people's "propensity to dissent". They fake Frieda's suicide, containing her for two centuries as she is forced to research "reverse-aging". Frieda's daughter Ximena teams up with Authority insider Tavon Brooks to try to rescue her. This book depicts the moral challenges humanity could face with the impending tsunami of genetic engineering.
