Can the Apple Watch Series 5 survive a half marathon with always-on display? Just plan ahead

<p>This fall I committed to running three half marathon races across November and December. Each race is a chance to test the Apple Watch Series 5 in a different configuration to better understand how various features affect battery life.</p>
<p>The always-on display is the headlining new feature for Apple Watch Series 5, but I was hesitant to use it during the first of three races this year. I didn’t want to risk losing workout data to a dead watch at Disney World (https://9to5mac.com/2019/11/05/running-apple-watch-series-5-airpods-pro-half-marathon/). After finishing the first race with 40% battery left, I decided to use the next race to test always-on display during a half marathon.</p>
