running rolling pace

How do I change the watch display to show a rolling pace instead of an average pace when I am running? My watch is 9.3.1. I reviewed one that showed how to do that. But, it was removed in 9.3.1. Is that right?

Hi DavidASL,


Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities!


We understand that you need help to adjust your Apple Watch to display your pace rather than average pace, correct?


Check out this resource which will show you how to track your workout: Run with your Apple Watch - Apple Support

"How to track your progress

Customize the metrics that you see when you work out, and see your past workouts. 

Choose which metrics to track

  1. Open the Workout app.
  2. Tap the More button the More icon next to the workout that you want to do.
  3. Tap the Edit button next to the goal or workout configuration.
  4. Tap Workout Views, then tap Edit Views.

Running form metrics

There are a number of metrics to help you get the most out of your running workout.2

An Apple Watch that shows running form metrics during a run.

Vertical Oscillation: Tap to add an estimate of how much your body travels vertically as you run in centimeters. This measurement, along with stride length, can give you a sense of how much energy you’re using to drive upward versus forward. Apple Watch can log your vertical oscillation automatically during outdoor running workouts.

Running Stride Length: Tap to add an estimate of how much distance you cover from one step to the next while running in meters. Along with cadence, stride length determines your overall running speed. Apple Watch can log your running stride length automatically during outdoor running workouts. For the best Stride Length estimates, run for approximately 200 meters to calibrate your Apple Watch.

Ground Contact Time: Tap to add an estimate of the time each foot spends touching the ground while running in milliseconds. Apple Watch can log your ground contact time automatically during outdoor running workouts.

An Apple Watch that shows the Heart Rate Zone metric during a run.

Heart Rate Zones: Tap Include to add Heart Rate Zones to get a sense of your intensity level.


An Apple Watch that shows the Running Power workout metric during a run.

Running Power: Tap Include to show an estimate of the work you’re doing while running measured in watts. Running Power reflects the intensity of your run and can give a sense of your effort as your speed or incline changes. Apple Watch can log your Running Power automatically during outdoor running workouts. Running Power is reported only during running workouts and cannot capture any extra load, such as a weighted backpack.

An Apple Watch that shows the Elevation metric during a run.

Elevation: Tap Include to show your elevation as you run.


An Apple Watch that shows the Activity Rings progress during a run.

Activity Rings: Tap Include to show the progress of your Activity Rings during your workout."


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
