Monitoring fitness using a mobile device

摘要

Athletic performance monitoring and tracking may provide multiple ways in which to track athletic movement and activity. In one example, an athletic monitoring device may include or be associated with multiple types of movement sensors and switch between the sensors or use both depending on various factors including type of workout. Workouts may also be tagged with various parameters including mood, weather, terrain, athletic equipment used and the like. In one or more examples, the parameters may be automatically determined based on location. User workouts and accomplishments may also be celebrated through messages from celebrities, family, friends and other users. In some cases, the messages may be triggered by various conditions. Coaching may also be provided to the user to help improve workouts and overall athletic performance. Running routes may also be automatically tracked, stored and shared.

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving, from a sensor device while being worn on the user, motion data generated by the sensor as a result of a motion of the user along a predetermined activity route; calculating, from at least a portion of the received motion data, a geographic location and an athletic performance metric of the user; outputting for display on a display device, a map comprising a marker identifying a predetermined activity route overlaid on terrain displayed on the map and the geographic location of the user; and generating for simultaneous display on the map, a secondary window comprising a graphical representation of the athletic performance metric of the user versus time, wherein the marker overlaid on the terrain is divided into a plurality of color-coded segments based on a value of the athletic performance metric of the user corresponding to a segment of the activity route.
