My question is how do you convert the pace to what it tells you for mph on MFP? So when I use my Nike app and sensor it tells me Pace 14'22" per mile. Is that 3.0? 3.5? 4.0? Anyone know?

    All you do is take 60 and divide by that number.

    So for a 10 minute mile, 60/10=6mph on a treadmill for example.

    So 14min 22 secs or 14.37 minutes per mile is 60/14.37= average pace of 4.18mph

    Well now I feel like a tool, I should of figured that out on my own, what was I thinking. So the lower the number the better right? But then it would match the MFP numbers?

    HAHA!

    Bottom line is, if Nike+ is giving you the calories burned, you can estimate which one (3mph, 3.5mph, etc) to enter, but make sure to override the calories burned that MFP thinks, and put in what Nike+ says.

    You want to track calories burned, so you could even create an exercise that says Nike+ and just put in the #'s Nike gives you.

    The lower your time the better, the higher the MPH calculation the better.
