Apple Watch running workout voice prompts

Hi. In watch OS version 9.0, when doing a running workout, the voice prompt at the end of every split gives you the time it took to run the split and the pace for the split. This is fine except that, if your splits are 1km (the default and how I want it), you wind up getting the same information spoken twice. The time it took to run the split and the pace for that split will always be the same. This actually becomes quite annoying.


Does anyone know if there's a way to control what information is delivered in the voice prompts. Being able to get rid of your pace for the split would be a great start. Being able to replace it with your overall pace, would be wonderful. Thanks.

The same bug exists if you opt for distance measurements in miles. After each mile, Siri announces the split time for that mile and the "average" time for THAT mile. As you said, you get the same info twice. Although, interestingly, the times sometimes differ by 1 second. Clearly, the average time should be the average for the entire workout, not just the most recent split.
