Peloton is once again an official partner of the Generali Berlin Half Marathon, continuing their partnership for the third consecutive year. The 2026 edition of the race – the event’s 45th anniversary – will take place on Sunday, March 29, 2026.
This year, Peloton is expanding their involvement with a “Road to Berlin Half” Run Club Tour across multiple cities in Germany and Austria. This will see Peloton instructor Jeffrey McEachern visit 5 different cities to host in-person run clubs – and in many cities he will be joined by a second instructor as well.
Peloton describes the tour on their event page, saying:
Motivated by community and powered by local run clubs with a shared purpose, we will show up as a team to show what true love of running is all about. This run club tour is your opportunity to connect with fellow runners, share your tips and stories around the training process, and experience the unparalleled motivation of the Peloton community in person, all led by your favourite Peloton Instructors.
Each stop on the tour features a free 5K run led by Peloton instructors in collaboration with local run clubs. Runners of all levels are welcome, with designated pace groups provided by the local run clubs. Each participant will receive a commemorative t-shirt from Peloton, and the group will reconvene afterward for post-run refreshments and complimentary goodies. Some stops will also feature recovery provided by Hyperice.
The events are free and open to both Peloton members and non-members, but registration is required. Participants must accept an activity waiver to participate.
