There’s got to be a running watch in there.

An excellent point. Although you can get a GPS running watch for about £70 in the UK[1] complete with wrist-based HRM (which is fine for most casual runners, I think.) And that'll last you a good few years, at least.

Plus, you absolutely don't need a running watch to run a marathon. That cost estimate is absurd.
