`seed`	an integer for set.seed()
`num_subj`	number of subjects to simulate
`prop_dist`	proportion of MESA distances to use - set to 1 for all MESA distances, or smaller to speed model fitting time
`max_dist`	upper bound on distances to include
`alpha`	true intercept value
`delta`	confounder effect
`beta`	true bef effect
`theta`	true spatial scale
`K`	exposure function
