Best is to run by feel and have the gps watch record it, but don’t look at the watch
Finally, someone else who is not pretending that GPS watches must be looked at constantly and in doing so will spoil your run.
I don't have a problem with Luddites but I do have a problem with people who invent problems that are not real or don't understand something so dream up their incorrect ideas and refuse to listen.

Truly going by feel is the most important thing. I've seen some of the highest-level pros with a standard watch instead of a GPS.

Easy is easy, moderate is moderate, effort is the most important thing. Go to the track once a week, or a measured loop - hit the workout to see where you're at, then run easy by feel to recover, log it all in a book, do it again. Mileage is a biproduct of the work that actually needs to be done... None of this silly Strava mileage tracking, data selling, social media distractions to getting in your way.
Time the run, log the time or miles, get the effort, and keep it rolling. Somedays are faster naturally, and some days are slower - the body decides, not the watch.
DISCUS
Step 1: disable auto lap
Step 2: set the data screen to elapsed time only
Congratulations, you now have a stopwatch that automatically logs your runs. I agree with the idea of running by effort according to how your body is feeling, but like others have pointed out, just be intentional about what you’re preaching. No need to buy a cheap watch when you can just repurpose what you have to fit what you want. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What's the running equivalent of Tadej Pogacar riding ~7 W/kg for 40 min?
JACOB and YARED, why won't either try to emulate Hicham's 1500m tactics?
Can we talk about how crazy hard this Olympic marathon course is?
