Peloton has launched a new class series with instructor Alex Toussaint. Called “Greatness Runs,” this outdoor class series became available on August 7.
Peloton sent a pop-up notification to the digital app informing members of the new series:
Athletes, are you ready? Alex Toussaint leads these outdoor classes meant to help you progress at your own pace. Get on the road to greatness starting August 7.
Members also observed a banner on their Tread devices advertising the new classes.
The first class is now available in the on-demand library: a 20 minute Greatness Run, which was released on August 7 at 10:00am ET. The official class description reads:
Build your physical and mental greatness in this special 20-minute run with Alex. With each stride, Alex will motivate you to move with a purpose, test your limits and unlock your greatest potential.
Though the pop-up notification suggests that the Greatness Runs will be an ongoing series, it is currently unclear how frequently the classes will be released. The description does indicate that they will be limited to the outdoor modality and not on the Tread. There could also potentially be a dedicated collection in the future.
The Outdoor Greatness Runs are different than his signature Ride & Run To Greatness, which has a competition element. That (currently) doesn’t appear to be a part of these outdoor Greatness runs. Instead, the outdoor greatness runs are more of a training series.
As a reminder, this past April Peloton added outdoor content to the Tread, allowing members to enjoy outdoor classes via their hardware device for the first time. Prior to this change, Peloton outdoor classes were only available to take on the digital app.
You can take Alex’s first 0utdoor Greatness Run now on your digital app or Tread device.
