It's not often that you get the chance to try an Apple Watch integration before everyone else, so when Apple approached me to test the upcoming Traning Peaks integration 10 days before its public launch, I quite literally pounced on the opportunity. And that was before I discovered I'd be using workouts set up by world-renowned ultramarathon coach Jason Koop!
Let's wind back a bit. A few months ago, Apple announced the latest cohort of its wearables, including the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and the Apple Watch Series 9. Before that, in June 2023, the Cupertino-based company gave us a rundown of the then-upcoming WatchOS 10 update, which was said to be huge for cyclists and included an excellent third-party integration created in collaboration with TrainingPeaks.
