Ken Richardson is currently working to achieve new PRs in all areas of his life. He enjoys his work as an HR Manager, but his true passion is running. He graduated from Weber State University where he competed in cross country and track. While at WSU he met his beautiful bride. Ken is also a Level 1 Certified USA Track and Field Coach.
While competing at WSU, Ken qualified twice to compete at the NCAA Championships. In his final year, he faced some injury challenges which forced him to stop competing.

It is certainly no wonder that Utah is one of the premiere destinations in the world for people who love the outdoors.
Utah is the place where many marathons take place ever year. Some of these Utah running races have been ranked as Runner's World 10 Most Scenic and Fastest Marathon and Top 20 Marathons in the USA. 
I have one leg that is shorter than the other. I look really awkward when I run with my friends. I was wondering if you offer private running lessons that will help me overcome my short leg complex?
I can run faster running backwards than I can running forward, any suggestions?
