Garmin Connect and Facebook.

When I share a workout from Garmin Connect to Facebook, my distances in miles. I want them in kilometers. My watch are set to kilometers, my Garmin Connect account is also set to km. Before I share the workout from Garmin Connect account the distances are in kilometers, but when the link is opened on Facebook, it changed to mil. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi there.
    Today, when sharing my activity to facebook, the distance and the speed appears like : Distance 3,071.00 km - Velocity 226.00 kph
    However in the Garmin connect, it appears in the right way - Distance 30,71 km and Velocity 22,60 kph....
    Anyone nows if this happened before? How to solve it?

    This is not going to get fixed, ever. Just spent an hour on the phone with them and their answer was to ask all my facebook friends to create a Garmin Connect account. Not going to happen so I am forced to just use my iPhone and MapMyRun.

    I did more testing and I found that if I connect to the connect website and view my runs I can then click on privacy and set to everyone. Then I can click on share the facebook and it shows up in Metric Units!! This proves the issue is with the iPhone app. I reported it to Garmin support over the phone and they are sending it to the app team. Can anyone on Android confirm if the issue is there as well?
