I’m new to Garmin and can’t figure out what the pace data represents.
I walked and had a pace of 12:47 /km
km/h wouldn’t make sense, because 12 km/h would be too fast for walking.
What do the numbers mean?

Interesting. I wonder why they choose this format. I used a running-calculator now that converted it to 4.69 km/h, which is way easier to read and understand.
It’s a popular way to compare times in races. It is a bit more meaningful to compare total times than speeds.
I see. Thanks for the explanation. I might get used to this format eventually.
It’s also much easier to convert your race time to a pace by using this format. If I complete a 5k in 40 minutes, that’s 40/5 = 8 minutes per kilometer.
Human rate of motion is usually expressed as pace rather than speed; they are reciprocals of each other.
