The biggest advantage of Apple's Running Track Mode over other GPS-enabled fitness tracking devices is its accuracy. The feature uses Apple Maps data instead of a learning algorithm to track the user's running path, allowing for a far more precise data set. 

Convenience of Apple's Running Track Mode: No Manual Data Input Required 

This means that the user can get an incredibly accurate GPS map that covers even the smallest details of their track, such as the correct lane in which they were running. With this precise data, Apple Watch can provide extremely accurate distance measurements and a more consistent pace. 

According to the story by Giz China, another benefit of Apple's Running Track Mode is its convenience. This feature is much more time-efficient than other track-tracking devices because it automatically recognizes a track's lane when runners enter it. 

This eliminates the need to manually input the data before running. Furthermore, Apple Watch users can also access their maps and data directly from the device, which is faster and means that users do not need to carry any additional hardware, such as a phone or computer, with them. 

Accuracy and Real-Time Comparison: Benefits of Apple's Running Track Mode 

Apple's Running Track Mode has a range of features that benefit users. Primarily, it allows for improved accuracy of data collection. Apple's Maps data, rather than a learning algorithm, enables more accurate recording of GPS tracks down to the exact lane a runner is running in (even if the watch is from a different manufacturer). 

This increased accuracy means runners can expect a more consistent running pace on the track and a more accurate reading of how far they have traveled. In addition to improved accuracy, Running Track Mode also helps runners by comparing their data with track data, meaning they can accurately compare their runs against others' times. 

This real-time comparison lets the user tell how their performance measures up against popular competitive racing standards. By having an accurate point of comparison, runners can adjust their own runs for better performance, as also explained in an article by DC Rain Maker
