What's picked up in a hurry? (4)

I believe the answer is:

pace

(Other definitions for pace that I've seen before include "Gait" , "With the leave of; speed" , "Speed of a single step?" , "Rate of progress" , "Tempo, rate of moving" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and The New York Times.
