Jess Sims leading 5K May Run Club in NYC for Mental Health Awareness Month

Peloton Studios New York is hosting its May Run Club event on Wednesday, May 13. This is a free 5K walk and run along the West Side Highway led by Peloton instructor Jess Sims, in support of Mental Health Awareness Month.

The event is free and open to both Peloton members and non-members, though spots are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. The official event page describes the run as a chance to “move with intention and create space for connection, reflection and support.”

You can find the event details on the official event page, with registration handled through the PSNY studio booking website.

The 5K route starts and ends at Peloton Studios New York. Doors open at 5:15pm, with the group departing at 6:00pm. Runners and walkers of all levels are welcome, with four designated pace groups:

  • Group 1: Sub 10 min mile
  • Group 2: 10 to 12 min mile
  • Group 3: Walk + Run
  • Group 4: Walking

Jess Sims will be leading the run club for the month of May.

Run club attendees will also receive 20% off at the PSNY retail store. Bag drop is available in the locker rooms, and showers are open after the event. Attendees should enter through the Manhattan West Plaza entrance near 438 W 33rd St (not the main 370 10th Ave entrance).

This run club ties into Peloton’s broader Mental Health Awareness Month programming, which the company has observed every May for years. We have already seen a number of live Mental Health Awareness Month classes on the schedule across cycling, running, yoga, meditation, and strength, with more expected throughout the month.

This is also the latest in PSNY’s monthly run club series, which has been running consistently for over a year in both New York & London. Recent NYC run club instructors have included Becs Gentry, Adrian Williams, and Matt Wilpers, with a different theme or instructor each month.

Peloton has previously announced a May run club in London, also on May 13th.
