With the coronavirus pandemic, even athletes and the best Peloton riders are stuck at home, but ESPN and Peloton have combined to bring celebrities and athletes together for an epic, all-out, 20-minute Peloton race.

Sixteen riders competed across two divisions in the Peloton All-Star Ride. If the athletes collectively reach an output of 3,000, Peloton will donate one million meals to the Food Bank for New York City.

Ally Love called the action. She is a Peloton instructor, model, dancer, certified health coach, host of the Brooklyn Nets, runner, and the founder of fitness lifestyle brand Love Squad.
