How can I change my workout splits to km on Watch OS9?

I changed the overall units to km, but the running metrics still show and announce mile splits instead of km. I tried deleting all the running workouts that were preset, and starting over form scratch after changing the overall units, but it still only offers splits and pace using miles. For instance, I have a 5km run set up, but when I'm running it, I get splits a 1, 2 & 3 miles and not at km markers, and my pace is in min./mile instead of min./km. I live in the USA but am training for a 10k so would really like to be able to keep track of my progress in km.

What am I missing here?

Hey there NaomiHansen, 

That's a great question. You can change units by following Adjust the workout settings on Apple Watch.

Specifically,


Change measurement units

If you prefer meters to yards or kilojoules to calories, you can change the measurement units the Workout app uses.

1. Open the Settings app  on your Apple Watch.
2. Tap Workout, scroll down, then tap Units of Measure.

You can change units for energy, pool length, cycling workouts, and walking and running workouts.


Have a good one!
