What to look for in a smartwatch for running

1. GPS Tracking

A good running smartwatch should have built-in GPS for accurate tracking of your running routes and distances. This will help you monitor your progress and set goals.

2. Heart Rate Monitoring

Heart rate monitoring is crucial for runners as it helps track your fitness level and lets you know if you're training in the right heart rate zone.

3. Battery Life

You'll want a watch with long battery life, especially if you're planning on using it for long runs or marathons. Some watches also have a power-saving mode which can extend battery life.

4. Durability and Water Resistance

Your watch should be able to withstand sweat, rain, and even an accidental dip in the water. Look for watches with a high water-resistance rating.
