1. A unitary apparatus configured to be worn by a user, comprising:
- a processor;
a sensor configured to capture motion data of the user;
a user interface; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed by the processor perform at least;
capturing, from the sensor while being worn on the user, motion data generated by the sensor as a result of a motion of the user;
calculating, from the motion data, an activity point metric indicative of an amount of physical activity carried out by the user over a first time period;
calculating a goal status that compares the calculated activity point metric with a goal activity point total for a second time period that encompasses the first time period; and
communicating, using the user interface, a motivational message to the user suggesting one or more physical activities to participate in, wherein the one or more physical activities, if participated in by the user within a remainder of the second time period, would cause the user to meet the goal activity point total, based on the calculated goal status.

Abstract
An athletic performance monitoring system, for motivating a user to reach a goal level of athletic activity. The system may motivate the user by calculation a deficit between a current total level of activity and the goal level of athletic activity, and suggesting activity types that the user may carry out an order to reach the goal level, wherein the suggested activity types may be based on activities that are geographically close to the user, or sporting equipment worn by, or in possession of, the user.

9. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a processor; a sensor; a user interface; and memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to; capture motion data from the sensor; calculate an activity point metric from the motion data indicative of an amount of physical activity performed by a user over a specified time period; calculate a deficit number of activity points as a difference between the activity point metric and a goal activity point total; and communicate, via the user interface, a motivation message to the user suggesting one or more physical activities to participate in to make up the deficit number of activity points. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor are configured to perform at least:
-
capture sensor data generated by a sensor as a result of a motion of a user; calculate an activity point metric indicative of an amount of activity carried out by the user over a first time period; and communicate a motivational message to the user when the activity point metric is within a threshold amount of a goal activity point total for a second time period that encompasses the first time period, wherein the motivational message includes a suggestion of a physical activity to participate in to reach the goal activity point total. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
