I tested the top fitness trackers for running a marathon (by running the NYC marathon)

To determine the best fitness trackers for running a marathon, I tested them while actually running the New York City Marathon. I wore seven different fitness trackers, from the new Apple Watch Ultra 3 to the affordable Suunto Run, to compare their performance. After training with 10 different models, including the Garmin Forerunner 570, Whoop MG, and Pixel Watch 4, I concluded that the Whoop MG, Garmin Forerunner 570, and Apple Watch Ultra 3 were the most impressive.

The Suunto Run also proved to be a valuable tool for runners. For those willing to invest more, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 topped the list at $699.99, while the Garmin Forerunner 570 was available for $549.99. The Whoop MG, priced at $359, stood out for its health tracking capabilities.
