Connect Running Activity Avg pace is showing the lap time, not calculating average pace

When I review a running activity lap detail, it shows the accurate time for each mile lap, however the Avg Pace column does not average the cumulative time, it just repeats the time for each individual lap. What do I need to do to fix this?

Nothing, since it is correct. The column Avg Pace is not the Avg Cummulative Pace, it is the Avg Lap Pace, hence it is correct. The only cummulative pace is the total pace of the entire activity.

Interesting. I guess I'm missing the point of including both a Time and Avg Pace data point that are both the same for every lap.

The lap is not necesarily always one mile (or one kilometer), hence the need for the lap pace. Auto-laps can be (and often are) of a custom length, and you can also add manual laps, completely out of the auto-lap distance. Also, even if you only use one mile laps, the last lap is rarely exactly one mile long.

Makes total sense, thanks. I completely overlooked the min/mile designation.
