Re: what it means for instructors to leave—I think in a way that is healthy. In an academic department or university, it’s a sign that faculty are doing well and have value that is recognized outside their current university. That is what I think is going on for Kendall and Ross, and seems like a sign of a good company, actually!
I just think it is super normal that people will move on - people do it from all kinds of jobs, even ones that people think are "too good to leave" (like, there is turn over every year from shows like SNL and that is a good thing... creates space for new talents to emerge too)
Thank you for this! I am also a fan of Peloton and have been on Reddit trying to figure out how to feel about the recent departures. We finally sold our “just for fun” stock after losing 50% of its value. And congrats on the 200 week streak, that is nothing to sneeze at! I ended my longest week streak with a rafting trip down the Grand Canyon—a great reason to break a streak but still felt sad …
MAZEL ON 200 WEEKS! Hell yeah that is your accomplishment!! And I am so appreciative of your takes here. I too was a pandemic buyer and quickly fell in love with it the same way. I found after decades of sporadic group spin classes, I got the same great energy solo on my bike at home. They created something so special, something that helped us survive (literally, physically and mentally) and feel more connected. I like Ross, listen to Kristen nearly every night to fall asleep and gave up Kendall after her mental health rides turned church sermon w/Christian music (not my jam). I dont think this is *the* sign of end times. There is SO MUCH CONTENT. Cody re-signing his contract makes me feel so much better. And us subscribers are an attractive market; someone will make sure we will have a place to pay our dues.
PS-I’m struggling to find any of their recent apparel drops cute. I need excellent support in a bra and capri length in my tights for my 5 ft frame. I’ve got a giftcard….what do i just *have* to try?
Hmm, okay, well that is a little tough because I don't think any of their bras have really high support. Most are medium support at best, so when I was larger I tended to double up bra with a boring bra underneath and then the cute one that was part of a matching set on top... not ideal, really.
In terms of bottoms, I love all of the Cadent fabric ones and find that they wash well and hold up great, but I'm not sure they have any capri length at the moment. I also like the Cadent tank tops (https://apparel.onepeloton.com/collections/women/tanks) for a little compression and staying put during yoga or strength classes.
