1. Do you believe different races of man exist?

Yes, in biological sense humans can be divided into different races (separate geographical and genetic clusters). Geneticists of today have had their fair share of today's ideological trends of some humanist studies and make unscientific and incoherent deductions when it comes to human genetics. IMO, that's also partly because they don't want to get mixed up with eugenics from the 30's.

3. Are some races "better" than others (eg. at sports) or are all races "equal"? Sure. Africans are far better runners than Europeans or Asians. The reason has been under scientific research, and the main reason was found to be that they have a lighter joint structure and their calves have much less mass which is critical for running efficiency. Muscular West Africans who have broad shoulders are made for speed whereas more slender East Africans for endurance.
Bonus Questions:

In your experience, which particular groups of persons/people are most prone to deny that Race exists ~ and why do you believe they do this? Especially those that are involved with sociology and women studies (postmodern science criticism). They are often overall biology-denialists when it comes to humans. Also, they don't approve of scientific facts when they don't back up their dogmatic beliefs.
