Exercises with group running in pack (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peloton

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'pack' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'exercises with group running' is the wordplay.
'exercises' becomes 'pe' (Physical Education).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'group' becomes 'lot'.
'running' becomes 'on' (eg when a machine is running it is on).
'pe'+'lot'+'on'='PELOTON'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for peloton that I've seen before include "Racing cyclists" , "Main body of riders in a cycle race" , "Main group of cyclists in a race" , "bunch of riders" , "cyclists in bunch" .)
