1. A method of processing athletic data, comprising: receiving, at a computing device having at least one processor, data specifying a user-defined athletic challenge including a user-defined goal to be achieved, identification of at least two participants in the athletic challenge, and a user-defined duration of the challenge, wherein the user-defined duration is defined by at least one of a user-defined start time and user-defined end time of the athletic challenge, wherein the identification of the at least two participants includes a user identifier unique to a first participant, wherein the received data defines the at least two participants as competitors against one another in the athletic challenge, and wherein receiving the data includes: generating, by the computing device, a first user interface including a plurality of user-selectable challenge types;receiving, by the computing device, a user selection of one of the user-selectable challenge types; andoverlaying, by the computing device, a second user interface over a portion of the first user interface, wherein the second user interface overlays a graphical element corresponding to the selected challenge type and wherein another portion of the first user interface including at least a non-selected challenge type remains visible when the second user interface is overlaid on the portion of the first user interface;transmitting, by the computing device, an electronic invitation to participate in the athletic challenge to a first remote device of the first participant after receiving the data specifying the user-defined goal to be achieved, and the user-defined duration of the challenge, wherein the electronic invitation is addressed to the first participant using the unique user identifier;receiving, by the computing device, a response from the first participant accepting the invitation;remotely monitoring and collecting, by the computing device, athletic performance data of the at least two participants through the duration of the challenge in accordance with the at least one of the user-defined start time and the user-defined end time of the athletic challenge; anddetermining, by the computing device, a winner of the athletic challenge upon expiration of the challenge based on the collected performance data. 2. The method recited in claim 1, further comprising: analyzing the athletic performance data to obtain analysis results; anddisplaying the analysis results with the athletic performance data. 3. The method recited in claim 2, wherein the analysis results include a mean or median of values in the athletic performance data. 4. The method recited in claim 3, wherein the analysis results include a mean of speed data values in the athletic performance data. 5. The method recited in claim 2, wherein the analysis results are displayed at intervals along the graph. 6. The method recited in claim 1, wherein the athletic performance data includes one or more types of data selected from the group consisting of: time data, speed data, distance data, and caloric data. 7. The method recited in claim 6, wherein a first type of data included in the athletic performance data is speed data, anda second type of data included in the athletic performance data is time data. 8. The method recited in claim 6, wherein: a first type of data included in the athletic performance data is distance data, anda second type of data included in the athletic performance data is time data. 9. The method recited in claim 1, wherein the athletic performance data is received over a network. 10. The method recited in claim 9, wherein the network is the Internet. 11. The method recited in claim 1, further comprising transmitting the athletic performance data to a remote storage device through a network. 12. The method recited in claim 11, wherein the network is the Internet. 13. The method recited in claim 1, wherein the athletic performance data is generated by one or more measurement devices selected from the group consisting of: a pedometer, a bicycle monitor, a heart rate monitor, and a blood-oxygen content monitor. 14. The method recited in claim 1, wherein remotely monitoring and collecting athletic performance data includes receiving the athletic performance data from one or more electronic devices selected from the group consisting of: a digital music player, a telephone, a watch, a personal digital assistant, a pedometer, a bicycle monitor, a heart rate monitor, and a blood-oxygen content monitor. 15. The method recited in claim 1, further comprising generating a graph of the athletic performance data including rendering the graph incrementally over time. 16. The method recited in claim 1, further comprising displaying a graph of the athletic performance data, wherein displaying the graph includes transmitting graphical data for rendering the graph to a remote display device through a network. 17. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving data defining the user-generated athletic challenge includes receiving a user-defined name for the athletic challenge. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving the data defining the user-defined athletic challenge further includes: generating the second user interface including one or more fields configured to receive user input defining the goal to be achieved and the duration of the athletic challenge; andgenerating a third user interface, upon receiving the user input through the second user interface, including one or more fields configured to receive user input specifying the first participant. 19. An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; andmemory operatively coupled to the at least one processor and storing computer readable instructions that, when executed, cause the apparatus to: receive data specifying a user-defined athletic challenge including a user-defined goal to be achieved, identification of at least two participants in the athletic challenge, and a user-defined duration of the challenge, wherein the user-defined duration is defined by at least one of a user-defined start time and a user-defined end time of the athletic challenge, wherein the identification of the at least two participants includes a user identifier unique to a first participant, wherein the received data defines the at least two participants as competitors against one another in the athletic challenge, and wherein receiving the data includes: generating a first user interface including a plurality of user-selectable challenge types;receiving a user selection of one of the user-selectable challenge types; andoverlaying a second user interface over a portion of the first user interface, wherein the second user interface overlays a graphical element corresponding to the selected challenge type and wherein another portion of the first user interface including at least a non-selected challenge type remains visible when the second user interface is overlaid on the portion of the first user interface;transmit an electronic invitation to participate in the athletic challenge to a first remote device of the first participant after receiving the data specifying the user-defined goal to be achieved, and the user-defined duration of the challenge, wherein the electronic invitation is addressed to the first participant using the unique user identifier;receive a response from the first participant accepting the invitation;remotely monitor and collect performance data for athletic activity performed by each of the at least two participants through the duration of the challenge; anddetermine a winner of the athletic challenge upon expiration of the challenge based on the collected performance data. 20. The apparatus of claim 19, wherein the duration of the challenge is defined by the user-defined start time and the end time of the challenge. 21. The apparatus of claim 20, wherein the computer readable instructions, when executed, further cause the apparatus to transmit performance updates of the first participant to a second participant prior to the end time of the challenge. 22. The apparatus of claim 19, wherein the data defining the athletic challenge includes a user-specified message and wherein the user-specified message is included in the invitation. 23. The apparatus of claim 22, wherein the invitation further includes a prompt providing a plurality of options for responding to the invitation. 24.
