Cannot set pace upper limit

I have a similar problem except my Upper Limit was limited to 3'00" to 3'40".

As a workaround, I found that setting Pace to Target, then setting the Target pace to the desired Upper Limit will persist when Pace is set back to Range. Then simply set the Lower Limit as desired without changing Upper Limit.

I hope that works for you too!

This issue has been fixed in watchOS 9.3!

Hello Sibs3000,

It sounds like you have a question about setting pace for your run in the Workout app on your Apple Watch, right?

Have you tried starting a new workout and see if you're able to set that limit? What about restarting your watch? Check out this article that may help:

Run with your Apple Watch

"How to start a running workout

1. Open the Workout app. 
2. Scroll to Outdoor Run or Indoor Run. 
3. Tap the More button  to set a calorie, distance, or time goal. To set a goal-based workout, or to complete a Pacer or Custom workout, tap the Edit icon  next to your goal.
4. Tap Start.
5. Wait for the three-second countdown. To skip the countdown, tap the screen.

To check your progress, check your watch face. Pace alerts are available for Outdoor Run only.

If you have Apple Watch Ultra, you can set your running workout to the Action button."

Regards.

I am pretty sure this is a bug and hopefully will be fixed in the next update. This did not happen prior to version 9.2.

Same thing happened to me. Still don’t have any solution, but it’s very frustrating I just came back to WorkOutDoors app because it’s quite important feature for me.

Did you figured it out? I can’t say when exactly it happened maybe it’s correlated to recent 9.2 upgrade…

I have reported the bug to Apple.

Pbufs, I had the same Upper Limit issue, 3’00” - 3’40” only. I used your workaround and it worked! Thank you very much! I hope Apple fixes this soon!!!

Woohoo! Good news!
