Hi! I'm Bryna the founder of Ran By Nature.

Born in Yorkshire - I've always been happiest when outdoors. My mum tried to take me to dance classes when I was really young. But I just sat on the side refusing to take part. I wanted to be running around the garden. Climbing trees and getting muddy knees! I've been running since I was 8 years old. And I competed for Great Britain as a Racewalker.

Currently, I'm an Associate Professor in Exercise Science (just 37% of academics in sport & exercise science in the UK are women - compared to 47% across all other disciplines) and my research focusses on the effects of heat and humidity (climate change) on exercise performance and health in women. 

I am also accredited by the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES) and Exercise and Sport Science Australia (ESSA).

I have over 10 years experience of teaching, research and consultancy across the globe. Most notably I have worked with the World's best teams, athletes and practitioners to provide evidence based solutions to exercise performance.

Currently, I am completing my Health Mindset Coaching Certificate, and Inclusive Fitness Certification.
