As long as it has pedals (whether for feet or for hands) and wheels (virtual or real), it counts! Peleton? Zwift? Road? Mountain trails?…

Best, affordable, fitness tracker/watch for an avid swimmer?
Hey there, I'm looking for something I can wear in the pool for at least 30 minutes of swimming, drills, and main sets for swimming. I know most watches are "waterproof" for 50 meters depth, rather than continuous water exposure for prolong periods of time- I'm trying to see if anyone has good recommendations!
