Why do we have a Swim, Bike, Run programme?
Over the past decade the sports of swimming, cycling and running, alongside triathlon, have grown to be hugely popular sports in the UK.
With this in mind the Swim, Bike, Run programme is designed to set pupils up for success both for their time here but also when they leave Bryanston.
Whether it is swimming, cycling, running or any combination of the three, we bring a group of like-minded individuals to work together and build a team environment in what some might perceive as an individual sport.
Whether you seek to excel in competitive swimming, enjoy recreational running or aspire to reach the pinnacle of triathlon, we are here to support you.
With state of the art facilities, top tier coaching our focus is on nurturing athletes to develop a lifelong connection with these sports.
'I started Bryanston in Year 9 (D), as a sport scholar and full boarder. I always loved all sports and sometimes found it hard to balance being in team sports and my main sport triathlon, but the Swim, Bike, Run programme allows the freedom between all the sports. I have a structured plan to follow every week which takes into account all the different areas of school life. I am so grateful to all the staff that are helping me be the best I can be, in a sport that I love.'

- Running / sprinting – up to 7 hours
- Cycling – up to 6 hours
‘Bryanston has given me the biggest opportunity I could’ve ever asked for; my swimming scholarship has allowed me to gain the experience of a lifetime at this fantastic school. I never thought running was for me, however I decided to give it a try and it was the most freeing feeling ever and I would recommend it to everyone. I am grateful to the programme at Bryanston as the school has made me a more well-rounded and appreciative person and has provided me with many life skills that I will use in the future.’
