Recording Results

I’ve been running for a few weeks now, and I’m seeing results. However, I have a bit of a problem with recording them. Currently, my phone is only able to run the absolute basics, meaning no fitness apps, and I don’t have the funds to invest in a new phone/fitness watch to help me get completely accurate results.

What I’m currently doing is measuring out the distance on a map on my computer, tracking time using my phone’s clock/stopwatch, and manually counting my heart rate at the end of the run. I’m hoping that someone here can offer some advice as to better ways to track results, as I feel like if I can’t upload a picture from a fitness app, I can’t properly share what I’ve done, which to me feels like it didn’t count. I know this is a weird request, but I would appreciate any help I can get!
