Who is your voice on your iPod Nike Plus account?

For the last 200 miles, following each run, Paula Radcliffe has chimed in, congratulating me on a great run. "Hi, this is Paula(r) again. Hope you're feeling great, because you're doing great. You've completed another 500 kilometers".

Well, a couple of weeks ago, she stopped congratulating me on each run. I didn't think it would be so at the time, but I missed the sultry sound of her encouraging British voice. Way better than Lance.

The last one I heard was Joan Benoit Samuelson.

Dang. Its a flawed poll. I didn't know there were any other options. Maybe you have to earn new voices with the more miles that you run. I'm only a lowly Mr. 500, so they haven't even consider me a serious runner by extending a real runner male voice. Instead I did a cyclist turned runner.

The last voice I heard was some guy saying "Did that run seriously take you that long", followed by maniacal laughing.

oh good, you got my voicemail.

I forgot to mention, though, whoever the voice was it was very high pitched, so I guess it could have been a woman.

I get both of them, depending on what amazing feat I've accomplished. I have the voice set to female though for the updates etc...

I guess I have yet to accomplish any amazing feats. All I ever get is Paula. Not that there's anything wrong with that....

I actually have the voice thing turned off. For some reason that woman's voice bugs the crap out of me at the end of runs. "400 meters to go...300 meters to go..." Shut up already!
