Which Watch is best for runners who can't run with a phone?

Next year will be my last year of Cross Country in Highschool, and right now, the only way I can track time is with an old stopwatch.

But I'm planning on practicing until College so that I can maintain a healthy and robust body. So what I'm asking for is an apple watch that can track my time, heartbeat, and GPS features. I don't want the latest version because of the cost, but something that I can use to run without my phone.

Some of my friends have other watches that include GPS, but most of them have Apple Watches. Honestly, anything works, but I want to track time and pace.

If you can help me out, that would be great!
