Pace is useful because it converts a race goal into a number you can compare during training. A finish time is easy to understand but hard to monitor at kilometer five. Pace gives you a repeatable target, and a split table turns that target into checkpoints. The calculation is simple — time divided by distance — but unit conversion and rounding are where many race plans go wrong.
RunPaceKit keeps the underlying distance in meters and time in seconds, then rounds only the displayed result. That means switching from minutes per kilometer to minutes per mile does not silently change your goal. The split planner also ensures that displayed segment times add back to the target finish time instead of drifting because of independent rounding.
