Map My Walk equivalent Smart Watch?

Options
I have Map My Walk on an old Android tablet that I use to show where I go running.
However the tablet is getting old and the battery is not holding a charge for wery long.
Rather than getting a new tablet is there a smart watch with GPS that I could use and transfer the GPS information to Google maps so that I could see where I had been running other than just having the distance run show on the smart watch?

  • Do you not have a small pouch for your mobile phone when you go running?
    If this was not too cumbersome, then Google Maps via its Timeline is an excellent means of tracking your movements.

    If taking a phone then the OP can stay with Map my Walk.

    Have a look at the Amazfit GTS that can do all you want and much more for less than £100 if you shop around.
