Pace range limited for custom workouts

I'm trying to create a custom outdoor run workout. When I try to set an alert for pace range, it limits me to a pace faster than 12:50. Why is there a limit on the pace alerts? I don't understand why this is necessary. Sometimes I need to set a pace slower than 12:50. Thanks

Hey jderekwood,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


For changing pace, you can review this article: Start a workout on Apple Watch - Apple Support


"Choose a target pace for an outdoor run, and your Apple Watch shows if you’re ahead or behind that pace.

  1. Open the Workout app  on your Apple Watch.
  2. Turn the Digital Crown to scroll to Outdoor Run, then tap the More button.
  3. Tap Create Workout, then tap Pacer.
  4. Adjust the distance—5 miles, for example—then tap Next.
  5. Adjust the target time for running that distance, then tap Done.
  6. During your run, your Apple Watch shows your average pace and your current pace, and a graph shows whether you are ahead or behind your chosen pace.

Your Apple Watch remembers your target pace across workouts. To change it, choose Outdoor Run, tap the More button, tap the Edit button in the Pacer tile, tap Distance • Time, then edit the distance and time."


For further assistance with this, we recommend contacting Apple Support here: Get Support.


Take care.
