Tazneem Anwar - aka Taz @ThisHijabiRuns. Championing diversity in running. Founder and Run Leader at Wycombe Women's Run Club.

Hello! And welcome to the fifth episode of the RAN BY NATURE podcast. I am Bryna Chrismas. Each week I will be joined by a guest to discuss self-care, people-care, and planet-care, and how we can increase diversity, inclusivity and sustainability in these spaces.   Today’s guest is Tazneem Anwar. Tazneem is a pharmacist, mother and runner. Having only taken up running approx 3.5 years ago, she has already accomplished so much, running her first marathon in Loch Ness; not an easy first marathon attempt by any stretch! She is also an Asics front runner, and has started her own running club, the Wycombe Womens run club. Tazneem is creating a space for, and representing hijabi and BAME runners, within the running community. If you are interested in running, or any sport for that matter, come and join the RAN BY NATURE online community and ask your questions to Tazneem and I. You can find Tazneem @thishijabiruns, on Instagram and Facebook, with links to her recent blog available in her bio. You can follow RAN BY NATURE on Instagram @ranbynature, or if you prefer, you can email me at hello@ranbynature.com. And don’t forget to hit subscribe on your preferred podcast platform, to ensure you never miss an episode. Let’s take care of our home, and the home we live on together. Here is episode 5
