What does pace mean? (discuss.tchncs.de)

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?

Typically pace is measured in minutes per kilometre. So it measured you as taking 12 minutes 47 seconds to walk a kilometre.

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.
