Live Fitness Class and Leaderboard

[Shant]

I think it would be great to add a live virtual fitness class and leaderboard to Strava.

This is important because:

• Athletes can connect with a Strava instructor leading a class
• The live nature of the class will be like Peloton but for different sports (running, cycling, rowing, weightlifting, swimming in future)
• Everyone sees the leaderboard live like an Orange Theory where it shows HR and ranking based on how hard the individual is working. Some classes can be distance based instead of HR based. 
• Athletes can connect with each other inside and outside of virtual class

When would I use this?

I would be more likely to get on my bike trainer if I knew I could connect with athletes on Strava that I know. I would also use it for group weightlifting classes. I am not sure if I would use it for the treadmill because I like running outside, but I think there would be people who do.
