Figure I should ask the OW swimmers since this will be the primary purpose for my use.
Need some guidance shopping around for a simple gps tracking device I can wear while swimming in nature. Few features needed, just something that I can use to review where I swam and the distance I traveled. It must be water proof to at least 10 meters. Is there anything affordable with a decent level of sampling rate?
Though not necessary, are there any products that can log a graphic representation of swimming velocity in M/s?
Thank you
I have used an inexpensive Garmin Forerunner 15 which I attach to my safer swimmer buoy. Here's an example of the kind of track data I get. (It says running but as you can see from the map it was swimming :) ) connect.garmin.com/.../1239642959
You can edit the activity type within Garmin connect. I have used my watch to track canoeing and hiking and just edit them from "swim" or "run" to "paddling" or "hiking"
