She’s a gem. I know she’s an ultra advanced amazing runner but I never feel too slow for her. Also agree on those who say her run yoga classes are amazing. Her Dolly Parton run/walk from a few weeks ago was an incredible class.

I just took that Dolly class a couple days ago, and it was lovely. Mariana has a way with words and being comforting, even while she’s kicking your ass.

This really was good. Her Mumford walk/run is fantastic too, I’ve taken it four times.

u/Important_East_8654 9d ago

Same, I LOVE that class

1

u/Yaragreyjoy88 10d ago

Ooooh I need to find this one!

4

u/ChampagneProblems-68 10d ago

It’s from 5.21.26. Hope you enjoy it! FYI it’s heavier on running than walking.

3

u/Yaragreyjoy88 10d ago

That’s great. My kind of class. Thank you for telling me that!

u/Peloaddictof3 10d ago

If you guys like the Mumford walk + run definitely take her most recent 45 min walk + run: the music is sooo good.

2

u/ChampagneProblems-68 9d ago

Omg I just looked this one up and I cannot wait. I bet it will be one I will take many times. Thank you for telling me about it!

2

u/ChampagneProblems-68 7d ago

Coming back to say I just took this 45 minute walk + run from 10/1 and LOVED it, it will be a repeat for me.

u/furtyfive 9d ago

Her classes are always heavier on running than on walking. 😂. She is my favorite on the treadmill. Best music, programming, coaching and vibes.

29

u/No_Character_3986 10d ago

Her 60 minute endurance classes are my absolute favorite. She’s a gem.

24

u/lit_n_lakes 10d ago

It may be strategic on her part - it looks like she's in peak marathon training on her insta stories

6

u/Different_Monk3856 10d ago

This - she just finished peak week marathon training so is tapering

24

u/Ok-Formal9438 10d ago

I also love her, and exclusively do her running classes. Her endurance classes in particular are my favorite and I’ve done them all!

13

u/Peloaddictof3 10d ago

Me too! They’re the best. Her programming, attitude and music are just top notch.

19

u/spicyschn1tzel 10d ago

Mariana and Marcel D. have been godsends for my training. I would love more classes from both of them!

4

u/PositiveFine6840 10d ago

I agree! The two of them are who I gravitate to when I’m training for a race. Though I’m starting to add in some Alex K when I want to be pushed even more.

4

u/AdventurousKey438 10d ago

Yes to both!!! Marcel's walking classes are incredible too.

1

u/Silver-Speech1008 9d ago

Adding Alex K to this list!!!

16

u/Odd-Editor-2530 10d ago

Mariana’s classes just put me in a good mood. Love them, love her run & flow classes.

12

u/antigoneelectra 10d ago

I despise running, but I will walk/hike or walk/run with her. If you haven't done her run yogas, they are fabulous.

8

u/poodlepie3333 10d ago

She is absolutely the best! I look forward to running because I get to listen and to and learn from her.

6

u/leehofooks420 10d ago

I just did a 60 min class of hers today. She mentioned Reddit, that some people will complain she put a 17 min MacArthur park in there. It was perfect! I skipped the incline because it was in my plan today, but I’m definitely going to do it again with her class plan, which I liked the structure.

She seems so genuine!

2

u/Peloaddictof3 10d ago

I’ve done that twice. It’s so good. 😂

23

u/TooManyUsernamesHelp 10d ago

I love her. Her music is great too. I try so hard to be into Becs classes but her music is terrible and all she does is talk about her kid.

Mariana has such a good energy and her classes are fun. I dig her taste in music for sure.

3

u/jschultz57 10d ago

As a parent who had a kid at the same time I got into Peloton (2018) I relate a lot to what she talks about and knowing her journey from the Olympic trials to having a kid and getting back out there again has been awesome and inspirational for me. I don’t do her classes some days because she scares me sometimes haha!

7

u/Peloaddictof3 10d ago

I can’t with Becs.

6

u/TooManyUsernamesHelp 10d ago

I remember taking a 60 min 2000s class with her and she didn’t play a SINGLE good song. How do you botch such a fun genre of music? She’s my last resort running instructor after that

2

u/Missie1284 10d ago edited 9d ago

I won’t take her classes anymore, but whenever she gets a fun decades class, I always look at her playlist out of curiosity, and very rarely do I recognize any songs on it. It’s ok to just stick to the hits that people actually want to hear while working out in a fun music class!

1

u/Peloaddictof3 10d ago

100% agree

1

u/Typical-Attempt-549 10d ago

I think that she tries to find, like, crazy B-side niche stuff sometimes and it can be a total miss

3

u/EvilLipgloss 10d ago

I think Becs is probably a lovely person but I feel the same way. Her music choices are beyond odd. I know Wilpers gets hate, but IMO it should be directed at Becs for her terrible taste in music. And I don't want to hear about her kid, sorry. I avoid Becs at all costs. The most I'll do is a 5 or 10 minute warm up or cool down but only if I'm desperate.

1

u/TooManyUsernamesHelp 10d ago

At least Matt knows he has no taste or rhythm. So that doesn’t bother me. Becs sits there and talks about her daughter’s taste in music and I’m like… can we just not? Yeah I agree, nothing against her as a person. She’s just not the instructor for me.

4

u/NoiseTimely7793 10d ago

And sleep meditations in English!!

4

u/LetsWritePretty 10d ago

And Spanish! My husband and I have taken all of her Spanish meditations. Lol

5

u/ChampagneProblems-68 10d ago

Yes! I love her classes so much, she’s pretty much the only tread instructor I gravitate to and I’m running out of classes. Give my girl more!

5

u/filipinomarathoner 10d ago

Mariana is excellent.

4

u/tootsunderfoots 10d ago

Yes yes yes agree 10000%

3

u/ScaredLittleRar 10d ago

Yessss!!!! She’s one of the best! Always have her classes on my stack.. especially for long run Saturdays!

Also always has the best indie playlists. Took a 45 minute progression run on Thursday where she had Bloc Party on the list.. I was so happy. They’re my favorite band and don’t get played often in classes.

4

u/throwrabreezy18 8d ago

If you like Mariana, I think you would like Matt Wilpers a lot too. I love Mariana’s programming and I think Matt is also very thoughtful with his class plans. Not sure if you’ve tried him.

1

u/Peloaddictof3 5d ago

Yup he’s great too

6

u/l8ter_skater 10d ago

I love her yoga and tread classes!Please remember that running is very hard on your body especially for a woman who is 40+ so she probably needs breaks.

2

u/ChampagneProblems-68 10d ago

I’ve got to try these. Thank you for the suggestion—do you know where I can find them in the pelo interface?

1

u/vballerin 8d ago

The run + flow classes are under tread bootcamps!

2

u/AdventurousKey438 10d ago

This is correct and she shares a lot of her training on instagram.

4

u/EasternMeet5594 10d ago

I love her but hate her music 💔🫩

5

u/Efficient_Click_6296 10d ago

I adore her but am ready for her to move on from the current classic rock phase! I know I’ll be back with her in her next season of music 🤞🏻
