What is the difference between pace and speed?

Pace is time per unit distance (e.g. min/km). Speed is distance per unit time (e.g. km/h). They describe the same effort in inverse units.

How do I convert min/km to min/mile?

Multiply min/km by 1.609344 (or use this calculator — both units are always shown).

A 1:59:59 half needs about 5:41 per kilometre (9:09 per mile). Use Distance + Pace or the Half Marathon target presets.
