What is D.C. Rainmaker's favorite fitness watch?

from Too Embarrassed to Ask · host Recode

Wearable tech and fitness blogger Ray Maker, a.k.a. D.C. Rainmaker, talks with The Verge's Lauren Goode about his full-time job testing fitness trackers, the dismaying inaccuracy of some trackers, and what his go-to devices are. An avid triathlete, Maker's current picks for athletic consumers are the Garmin Fenix 5 or Forerunner 935XT. However, when it comes to smartwatches, Maker says the Apple Watch is the best smartwatch overall — just not for serious athletes. Maker also talks about the craziest, potentially-life threatening things that have happened while he's out testing. Plus: A cameo from Recode co-founder Walt Mossberg.
