The ?Motion Based? site ( http://www.motionbased.com/ ) does a great job of getting performance data from GPS data. The Motion Based site also interfaces with Google Earth. The ?Topofusion? (http://www.topofusion.com ) program also gets athletic performance form many GPS units. Topofusion also interfaces with Microsofts Terraserver for even more detailed maps. This is great for finding trails. These “GPS/Mapping” sites and data allow one to compare two rides to check for improvement or see who is faster. Two rides or runs can even be loaded into these sites for a virtual race. One day, my wife found all the place I have mountain bike via the interface with Google Earth on the Motion Based site. She was surprised by all the places I have ridden. I was lucky she didn?t notice the drops in elevation using Google Earth Many GPS units interface with a computer and there are many websites that I would consider part of the Web 2.0 that can be used to manipulate this GPS data.

Garmin has many small Forerunner GPS units that are great for runners and bikers. I like the inexpesive 201 model.

Monitoring athletic performance with GPS units is the way to go. Athletes also use GPS units to “model” their performance on computers.
