Barely do math on my fingers :) But in all seriousness, this is similar to what I do with my fitbit. The program monitors all kinds of things. Like I was just looking at my increase in steps over the last 28 days compared to the 28 days before that and I'm up 12%. But it's re-configured everyday. I count how many days in a row I meet certain goals, be it total miles, total steps, total calories etc. I monitor my lifetime steps and predict how long before I reach my next 1 million steps etc. It does keep me motivated :) Keep doing whatever works!

I would really recommend long term and short term goals, like total miles or total workout minutes. I have a goal for the year, also broken down to goals for the month, the week, the day. And I track them religiously. Believe me, if you have been on track for a few months and you notice that you start to slip up, threatening to miss your goal for the year after being on track for so long - it will motivate you to clean up your act! Even better: after a while you can compare yourself to your past performance and track improvements. So fun and so motivating! And a wonderful opportunity to set up big Excel spreadsheets and charts ;-)
