Marathon season is upon us, and runners have discovered a clever way to improve their pace in preparation.
In collaboration with iconic runner Eliud Kipchoge, the new Huawei Watch GT Runner 2 is designed to help wearers achieve their next PB.
With an Intelligent Marathon Mode, the new gadget provides everything from smart training plans and pre-race guidance to refuel reminders.
As though that isn't enough to keep you motivated during training, Huawei also worked closely with the dsm-firmenich running team to refine the running power metric, which enables amateur runners to keep track of their exercise intensity.
There is also a wheelchair mode, which will identify specific pushing motions, distance, push count, and frequency.
It's the lightest titanium running watch in the industry, too with a 14-day battery life and impressive 32 hours of continuous GPS tracking.
From price and top features to how it works, find out more below.
The new Huawei Watch GT Runner 2 is now available on the official website here.
There are three colorways available: dawn orange, midnight black, and dusk blue.
Built with expert insight from Eliud Kipchoge, who has a sub-two hour marathon record, the Huawei Watch GT Runner 2 is designed to help seasoned and amateur runners.
It will provide personalised training plans based on the race you're working towards with pacing guidance and post-race achievement sharing on offer.
For those of you not quite ready to get behind the starting line, the watch also boasts smart training programs, which can be tailored depending on your level of experience.
For instance, these include interval runs, long, slow distance, and tempo runs.
The watch can be worn for other sports, too. There are over 100 sports modes available, from golf and skiing to trail runs.
