This kind of thing. I got given for free a Huawei Band 4 Pro type fitness tracker thing. About £30; has GPS, can receive text messages / whatsapp, does step count. Linked up to the phone app it shows you the route where you've walked / run etc, heart rate, speed / splits etc etc. For the price, really really good.Cheap basic fitbit
Mine cost £49 from Asda.
