acquiring physiological exercise data in an electronic format using the plurality of physiological exercise sensors applied by the first exerciser and the second exerciser, the plurality of physiological exercise sensors comprising at least one of a heart activity sensor, a cadence sensor, or a power sensor;
determining a first performance metric for the first exerciser and a second performance metric for the second exerciser on the basis of the acquired physiological exercise data;
detecting whether or not a predetermined common target is collectively fulfilled by the first and second exercisers on the basis of the first and second performance metrics;
triggering an event in response to detecting that the first and second exercisers collectively fulfill the predetermined common target such that the first and second exercisers have a direct effect on whether or not the event is triggered;
detecting whether or not the first performance metric and the second performance metric individually fulfill the predetermined common target simultaneously;
triggering the event in response to detecting that the first performance metric and the second performance metric individually fulfill the predetermined common target simultaneously such that the first and second exercisers have a direct effect on whether or not the event is triggered; and
displaying the event on the display to at least one of the first exerciser or the second exerciser.

Abstract
A method includes acquiring physiological exercise data from a plurality of physiological exercise sensors applied by a group of exercisers; determining a performance metric for each exerciser on the basis of the acquired physiological exercise data; detecting whether or not a predetermined common target is met on the basis of the performance metrics; and triggering an event upon detecting that the predetermined common target is met.
