Monitoring activity of a user in locomotion on foot
First Claim
1. A method, comprising steps of:
- (a) with one or more devices supported by a user while the user is in locomotion on foot during an outing, automatically identifying occasions on which the user completes respective distance intervals, wherein data used to identify the occasions is entirely generated by the one or more devices supported by the user; and
(b) during the outing, displaying with the one or more devices at least one of an average pace of the user since a most recently completed distance interval, an average speed of the user since the most recently complete distance interval, and a projected time to complete a current distance interval based on monitored performance since the most recently completed distance interval.

Abstract
A user in locomotion during an outing may support at least one device to automatically measure amounts of time taken by the user to complete one or more distance intervals. The user device may automatically identify occasions on which a user completes respective distance intervals. The user device may display at least one of an average pace of the user, an average speed of the user, and a projected time to complete a current distance interval based on monitored performance, each measured since the most recently completed distance interval. The device may also monitor a distance traveled by the user. The user device may determine a remaining distance to be traveled to complete one of the specified goal distances for the outing and a calculated fraction of the specified goal distance for the outing. Data relating to the calculations may be received by a user device input.

5. A method, comprising steps of:
-
(a) with one or more devices supported by a user while the user is in locomotion on foot during an outing, monitoring a distance traveled by the user, wherein data used to monitor the distance is entirely generated by the one or more devices supported by the user; (b) receiving an input to the one or more devices that specifies a goal distance for the outing; and (c) determining with the one or more devices a remaining distance to be traveled to complete one of the specified goal distance for the outing and a calculated fraction of the specified goal distance for the outing and displaying with the one or more devices the remaining distance to be traveled to complete the specified goal distance for the outing.
