The Peloton leaderboard contains a great deal of information on how you’re performing, both against others who are taking / have taken your class as well as how you’ve performed in the past. It’s a fairly data-packed screen, so let’s get into it… Exhibit A (above) is my own line item on the leaderboard, taken
If you’ve been a Peloton member for any length of time, you probably have been hearing about “calibration”. Not from Peloton, no. They hardly ever mention it. It is a topic in social media, though, and it seems that there is a widespread problem that Peloton may have no way of getting on top of.

As a courtesy to my fellow Eagles fans, who hopefully will have many chances to sing it tomorrow, I give you some sheet music and chords for the Eagles fight song. A couple of years ago I looked around the Internet for this and never found it written down, so I decided to fill the
I am an Eagles fan. I used to call myself a “big” Eagles fan, but to be honest, I’ve never painted my face green. I’ve never gotten on an airplane to go see a road game. I haven’t rewritten my will to ensure that I’m buried in my Randall Cunningham jersey. I’ve met people like
Last week, fitness startup Peloton (you’ve seen their commercials) announced their second product, an Internet-connected treadmill called “Peloton Tread”. This is a pretty dramatic step (no pun intended) for the company, but (pun intended this time) are they putting their best foot forward? I’m not an expert in the fitness industry, and I’m not even
