I'm running the Paris Marathon this year - here are three pieces of tech I'm using to cross the finish line

A new year means new challenges, and like many runners, I'm going to be trying to set a personal best over 26.2 miles. On April 13, I'll be lining up with thousands of other runners at the Arc de Triomphe for the start of the Paris Marathon. It'll be the highlight of my running year, and I'm relying on three key tools to get me there - two devices and one app.

I was lucky enough to test many of the best running watches and apps in my previous roles as fitness editor here at TechRadar, and editor on our sister site Advnture, but these are the tools I use myself every day, and used to run a PB at the Manchester Marathon in 2024.
