Peloton instructor Rad Lopez has entered a partnership with Nike, and will now represent the company as one of their athletes.
He announced the news via Instagram, teasing that “dreams do come true don’t they.”
Rad went on to share a saying from his mom, saying that “when I spoke to her of keeping her head up through our struggles”, she would reply to him that “Radi, you can’t just dream about it, you have to be about it.”
In his announcement, he posted a montage video of starting his morning with coffee before undertaking various activities such as stretching, running, lifting weights, and boxing – all while wearing Nike apparel in all those scenarios.
Rad then shared all the things he represents – with Nike being the newest addition to the list:
I represent my family.
I represent those early mornings, yours and mine.
I represent the strength it takes in being the underdog.
I represent nuestra cultura.
Finally, I represent, and am a part of, the @nike family.
Fellow Peloton instructor Tunde Oyeneyin is also a Nike athlete and has been for the past few years. Numerous instructors have partnership with major athletic brands, such as PUMA, Under Armour, and Jordan.
Becs Gentry also recently teamed up with Nike, having taken part in a relay race in Greece that Nike put on.
