I’m heading into my first triathlon (sprint) and have been carrying my phone around for basic pacing / distance for biking and running (I know, amateur hour) but want something that can also monitor heart rate and track swimming.

I’m also a sucker for Spotify, so the watch needs to be able to download the app and the songs, and pair well with headphone.

It’s likely I’ll start training for the Olympic length at some point, so battery life is important.

I’ll probably only ever do this as a pretty bad amateur, so my goal is to have fun and finish, and I likely won’t track my stats.

Apple prices are a scam, so would prefer to not have to buy the Ultra, but open to any suggestions for a basic watch that’ll do the job!
