From what I gathered, this connects to your smart phone via Bluetooth.

I wonder what the Bluetooth connectivity range is. If I go jogging on the local junior high school's 1/4 mile running track, I usually set my phone down by a bench rather than carry it.

...

Internets tells me:
The typical range for Bluetooth devices is up to 10 meters (33 feet), but with newer versions like Bluetooth 5.0, the range can extend to up to 100 meters (328 feet) under ideal conditions.
So as to whether or not it would work for my track runs, the answer appears to be a solid "maybe".

Leave the phone in the middle of the field.
 
Description for the watch says "Bluetooth 5.3", so it appears that it would cover the dimensions of the track if I left it on a bench halfway up the straight way.

My apple watch will record workouts w/o the phone. It then connects to the phone when I get near it.

Maybe this does too?

$22! Sounds like a newer model is about to come out...?
