Dual-frequency is becoming more common in sports watches, but most older or lower-end models dont have it.

The watch measures everything from ground contact time to vertical oscillation to stride lengthwithout needing any extra equipment.

(That includes multisport workouts for triathletesthe Ultra is water-resistant down to 40 meters.)

Or, you’re able to race against a previous run on the same route.

Durable case

The Ultras titanium case is supposedly built to withstand all sorts of outdoor adventures.

I also found myself accidentally starting workouts while wearing the watch in daily life.

Huge size

Any sports watch with a long battery life is likely going to be pretty large.

I imagine this is something Id adjust to over time.

At $799, the Ultras price tag is steeper than most sports watches.

And for serious running watch nerds, it may be missing a few features that you love.

It turns out, Apple Watchescanbe for real runners.
