Sweet Nnormal hoodie you're sporting there, Allie O. Great to hear that Nnormal is taking you seriously and getting your feedback and input on their product lines and company direction. Great decision on their part to get the advice of a pro runner and take it seriously, and also support your social (ED awareness, etc.) goals. Great Nnormal teammates, too. Good to know you'll be doing trail, road, and track races in the future. Sounds like an amazing schedule. Here's to staying healthy and strong and ready to race.
Great Q&A! I’d highly recommend watching the late finishers at an Ironman event achieving their goals. So inspiring to see all body types getting it done. As you said, it’s more about what’s inside. Congrats on the adventures ahead and maybe consider the Xterra trail running world champs.
I needed to hear what you had to say about a certain runners body type!❤ I just need to remember to trust the process of training, work rlly hard, and results will come eventually! :)
im honestly so excited for your trail running adventures and equally glad about the work you're doing around ED, both for yourself and others; you're an excellent and much needed role model for young runners
16:30-17:16 Thank you so much for this. I'm a high schooler who has had this mentality that losing weight and dropping my calories will make be a better runner. I'm finally stopping with the obsessive calorie tracking/restricing and weighing myself everyday. I feel so much better and I'm glad that I heard this from people like you to change my mind and keep me from a downward spiral. ♥
I’m so happy that you recognized those harmful behaviors and took action to change them! Proud of you for being strong and setting yourself up for success ❤️
What an excellent video! You answered every question a person could have about this partnership. Looking forward to your whole journey but really can’t wait to see you on the trails.
omg the stoked levels are thru the roof like those races !!! i remember when u commentated one of ur steeple races at nationals and talked abt a bunch of ppl in that race who went on to a buncha cool areas of running and now ur also somewhere new too which is rly excitingg
My nine-year-old totally believes the Golden Trails were his idea. I’ll just leave it that way, I think 😂 He is super super excited to watch your races this year!! Love from Amsterdam 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🏁
Congratulations, Allie!! So excited that you'll be doing more trail. You're going to be such a positive presence and absolutely smash these races. I'm also selfishly SO excited to see you at Sunapee. I'll be absolutely fangirling and trying not to pass out before the race. 😂
Is there an Allie code to use when buying Nnormal gear? I don’t even want a discount, just them to know I’m buying their gear and supporting them because they’re supporting you. You are an inspiration. Congrats on all the things. Can’t wait to see what you do on the trails.
Omg enjoy the Dolomites and Spain!! Love your RUclips channel, I paused watching HBO to come here! Best wishes on your races and congrats on the partnership!!
Love the Q&A! And as always, I am so impressed with your candor and humility. Even those of us who have never met you seem to feel like you are a true friend. I wish you SOOOOO much success this year, and for many years to come! Nnormal hit a major home run with you!
Allie, another excellent video. The trail races that you are slated to run all sound really exciting and in stunning locations. I am glad that NNORMAL is giving you the flexibility to wear other brand shoes when you race on the road or the track. I know that alot of us were wondering and concerned about what shoes you would be wearing. You have alot of fans rooting for you mostly because you are such a nice person. Look forward to watching the Gate River Run. Best regards.......
Hi Allie good morning happy Monday morning and I hope you having amazing weekend and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
very exciting times for you and us cheering from the sidelines. I can't wait to see your track journey continue, but then, your trail journey is very exciting. while I love the olympic athletes, the ioc have wrecked the olympics for me. I haven't watched any olympics for 20 years, but everyday I'm watching the allie's and the courtney's on youtube.
Yay, so happy and so excited for you, Allie. You totally deserve this, for all of your hard work and especially for your honesty and insight. Especially excited that you'll be returning to AK for the Mt. Marathon Race. Can't wait to cheer you on as you fly down the mountain.
Glad to hear things are working out for you. I haven't really ever followed trail running but if they are televised, and you are running I will watch it this year. Really glad you didn't shut the door on the steeplechase. I always thought it was a perfect mix of endurance, speed and athleticism.
Excellent video Allie! It’s going to be so fun to watch your journey on the trails and see you do some road and track stuff! NNormal sounds like an amazing company! You will be an awesome ambassador!
Love this ALLIE! So proud of you for sharing your struggles and being a role model for young runners. Congratulations on Nnormal. Look forward to seeing you on the trail circuit- so much more real about the body, and as you reach for your other goals.
Once again Allie a huge congrats to your new contract they seem like a good investment and they want to help you not only with your running goals but also your recovery goals so congrats again!!! I am so stoked for the races that you have coming up that is super exciting and i'm stoked for you to do them!! I am just so inspired by you and your journey you have come so far and it's really amazing to see all that you have accomplished so far :) Wow going to spain that sounds like a once in a lifetime opportunity! I am still sturggling with eating enough and fueling my cross fit training but I am inspired by you to keep going no matter how hard it gets :)
17:41 It's okay. My favorite PopTart flavor is brown sugar cinnamon, all because of how perfectly it pairs with a tall glass of water in the morning, lol!
Inspiration, I have the feeling the best is yet to come for you, see you may be on the trails in Europa, may be in Chamonix, my wife is running UTMB this year, take care, all the best 🍀
Congratulations on your affiliation with Nnormal! You deserve it! I was wondering how much sleep your body typically requires a night? Do you take naps?
Yayyy! This is very exciting news! More trail races only means more hill workout videos.. which means more suffering and.. is so enjoyable to watch hahahaha
Can’t wait to see more trail content. Looking forward to hearing more about the brand as well, it’s great you are getting involved in the team early on.
Dolomyths + Sierre Zinal + Pikes Peak Bah Gawd that's Golden Trail World Series music! Hope to see you mixing it up with Nienke Brinkman, Maude Mathys, Judith Wyder, Sara Alonso...
Great video covering all aspects of the new sponsorship and your plans going forward. Just slightly heartbroken to hear that Paul is your favorite subscriber - but hopefully I can recover from this news. But seriously, enjoy the process and have a great time running Gate RR 15K and Carlsbad 5000 and beyond. You're too young to remember, but ESPN used to have a weekly 30 min show called "Running and Racing" back in the day and I made my one and only ESPN appearance on their Carlsbad coverage in the late 90's (B-roll footage of finishers; the leaders were gone in the first 400!)
yes, so cool 🎉🎉 i hope to see you crossing that finish line at sierre-zinal. i‘ll be running it in the ‚tourist‘ category (well, I hope to get a spot) 😉😉
Added you on Strava. I’m getting back into trail running. I’m doing two events in april. Can’t wait. Cross country was my love in high school. Have the nicest trail shoes. Looking forward to watching your trail running videos soon. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
I always enjoy watching your videos, you've really helped me through my ED by sharing the raw, real side to things, and its helped me put into perspective whats important and what will help me in the long run! Thank you for being you! never change! Also what distances are the trail races that you'll be running?
Looking sooooo forward to seeing you running the 15K!!!!....Rachael Kennedy a friend of mine will be running...hope you get to meet her she has a great inspiring story. Pulling for you Allie....Stride On!!!...love your channel/content👍👍
Really like how you explained your weekly mileage and glad you on strava as now following you.I been running around 15 miles a week and have now increased my mileage but being careful to avoid injury.My goal is 40 miles a week by the summer to improve my running and times .
Just be careful and don't build up too fast! Also integrate some down weeks so it's not just build build build and no time to adjust to the training load!
There's nothing controversial about that pop-tart call. Cherry and brown sugar cinnamon are easily the best flavors. I'll be very interested to see all of your new trail running content as it starts to ease in.
Awsome Q&A Allie thank you for taking the time to answere questions i had a few in mind that you answered. I am looking forward supporting your journey as best as I can. Im sure you will have a wondeful time over europe. Is spencer and georgie going to be traveling with you? Good luck on your 15k race on saturday rooting for you. Have a great rest of the week.
It sounds very exciting... I'll buy some of their products and give them away as gifts. {I have always liked (simple) trail running. I grew up speaking several languages including Spanish and Italian. I hope you enjoy Spain and Italy, etc.}
Do you have any advice for a high school runner that wants to run in college? Also do you think you could also talk about signs of an eating disorder? Thanks!
Advice for a runner who wants to run in college would be to reach out to coaches, focus on development through high school, and realize that it's more important to be great at the end of college than at the end of high school.
This is all very exciting. So happy for you. Is it fair to say that the choice of the 15k season kickoff race was a way to do a race that both helps you prep for some 5k/10k races on the track AND the longer-distance trail running to come this summer? Or is it mainly just the latter?
Another question: Around 2-2.5 years ago I was around 140-145 lbs and running 80-90 miles a week and in the best shape of my life. I started getting injured not much later and it has been an endless cycle since. Now I'm 160-165 lbs and when I've been healthy anytime I do a running workout longer than an hour or so, my legs tend to feel like lead the rest of the day and after I complete the session. In addition, I've found that running even 50-55 miles a week has proven to be challenging on my body even with me being much smarter about training intensity now than back then. Is that "lead feeling" in my legs simply from the increased impact from the added weight and if so would say that I simply need to adjust my volume accordingly? Thank you for taking the time to read this message! You're an inspiration Allie O!
I think you just have to adjust to what your body is telling you. If the higher mileage doesn't feel good, and you aren't adapting to the training well, it makes sense to try something different. Maybe going lower mileage but adding cross training?
@@allie_ostrander yep that sounds like a good idea and I've been trying to do more of that as opposed to rushing mileage! I actually have really found a passion for cycling and swimming/the triathlon since being injured continuously. I think I also need to not be so ambitious about weekly volume and hitting a specific and arbitrary number/time goal because that's all it is, a number and nothing else.
How does that work with track and road running since NNormal is trail and mountain running and does not have road and track shoes, are they good with you running in a pair of Aplhafly's or Vapor's or whatever is best for you for road and track? And does that mean they will look at road and track at somepoint or just stay with what they know best?
Great Q&A. FWIW I have a "runner's body" but am spectacularly slow at running - the body doth not the runner make. To answer your dad's question, I assume your dad is your favorite father?
Allie, which race will you run at the Broken Arrow weekend of races? I live near there and we are getting hammered with snow, so I expect there will still be snow on those courses in June as well as for Western States which is the following weekend.
Sweet Nnormal hoodie you're sporting there, Allie O. Great to hear that Nnormal is taking you seriously and getting your feedback and input on their product lines and company direction.

I have been wearing this hoodie non-stop! And thank you, I'm really excited for all that is to come.
Great Q&A! I’d highly recommend watching the late finishers at an Ironman event achieving their goals. So inspiring to see all body types getting it done. As you said, it’s more about what’s inside. Congrats on the adventures ahead and maybe consider the Xterra trail running world champs.
true true! I will check that out!
Yeah so excited to see you will be running more trail races. They are so fun!! Enjoy every opportunity you have. You’re amazing!!
Thank you! I can't wait to take on this new challenge!
I needed to hear what you had to say about a certain runners body type!❤ I just need to remember to trust the process of training, work rlly hard, and results will come eventually! :)
im honestly so excited for your trail running adventures and equally glad about the work you're doing around ED, both for yourself and others; you're an excellent and much needed role model for young runners
Rooting for you and the company. They seem to be good folks.
16:30-17:16 Thank you so much for this. I'm a high schooler who has had this mentality that losing weight and dropping my calories will make be a better runner. I'm finally stopping with the obsessive calorie tracking/restricing and weighing myself everyday. I feel so much better and I'm glad that I heard this from people like you to change my mind and keep me from a downward spiral. ♥
I’m so happy that you recognized those harmful behaviors and took action to change them! Proud of you for being strong and setting yourself up for success ❤️
The trails in the Dolomites are AMAZING!
What an excellent video! You answered every question a person could have about this partnership. Looking forward to your whole journey but really can’t wait to see you on the trails.
Excited to get out there!
omg the stoked levels are thru the roof like those races !!! i remember when u commentated one of ur steeple races at nationals and talked abt a bunch of ppl in that race who went on to a buncha cool areas of running and now ur also somewhere new too which is rly excitingg

stoked for sunapee!
Nnormal and Norway... will be a great team. Of course!!!!
Wishing you all the best.

You’re gonna come to Italy, omg, YES! Italian stan here to support what Francesco Puppi calls “madness”. LFG! 🤟🏻🇮🇹

Look forward to watching the Gate River Run. Best regards.......
Yes, it's really nice of them to allow this flexibility and accept that road shoes are not their focus, so it's in my best interest to use others!
Hi Allie good morning happy Monday morning and I hope you having amazing weekend and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
New subscriber here from Ireland. Love your videos and honesty. Hope to follow your success to the top.
Did I hear Pikes Peak.....! Yes come run with us! Spencer can look for Bigfoot if he comes 😀
very exciting times for you and us cheering from the sidelines. I can't wait to see your track journey continue, but then, your trail journey is very exciting. while I love the olympic athletes, the ioc have wrecked the olympics for me. I haven't watched any olympics for 20 years, but everyday I'm watching the allie's and the courtney's on youtube.
yes, it's nice to have options, and I'm excited to do multiple types of racing!
Yay, so happy and so excited for you, Allie. You totally deserve this, for all of your hard work and especially for your honesty and insight. Especially excited that you'll be returning to AK for the Mt. Marathon Race. Can't wait to cheer you on as you fly down the mountain.
thank you, I'm so thankful and excited for what's ahead!
Yay coffee. So glad for you Allie O I wish you all the best

UTMB is a race I really want to do someday!
Congratulations on your affiliation with Nnormal! You deserve it! I was wondering how much sleep your body typically requires a night? Do you take naps?
I sleep usually 9hr a night. Sometimes 10 on the weekends! I don't usually take naps because I just don't like them haha
Normal signed Allie because she shows up to race and will represent their brand in and outside of competition.
the answer to the high school runner was really superb, i hope that helps a lot of people
Nice hearing those questions being addressed. Good luck this 4th.. also didn't know Spencer had a channel. I'm getting ready to watch his sub 4 story.
About time you got Strava lol 😂 but seriously kudos with the contract enjoy watching your journey since starting your channel since the early days
haha I know. I held out for so long!
Excited for your new adventures Allie! Always cheering you on!! :)
Oh my !! So excited for you Allie... So many great, iconic races penned in... Sierre Zinal is special... :D
it will be an iconic year!
Great athletes are not normal. You are among the elite. Working with a team is great.
not normal is best
Yayyy! This is very exciting news! More trail races only means more hill workout videos.. which means more suffering and.. is so enjoyable to watch hahahaha
MORE HILLS
Great job. Looking forward to some exciting training and racing.
Great job on your race! 52:37 is very solid!
The Allie O and Allie Mac Show! Woohoo!....
Wow! Can’t wait to see some trail content!
So excited for this one! So happy for you Allie. Best of luck on your continued training!
Can’t wait to see more trail content. Looking forward to hearing more about the brand as well, it’s great you are getting involved in the team early on.

Just be careful and don't build up too fast! Also integrate some down weeks so it's not just build build build and no time to adjust to the training load!
Hi Allie
I am doing down weeks as you suggested and know not to over to do.
There's nothing controversial about that pop-tart call. Cherry and brown sugar cinnamon are easily the best flavors.
I'll be very interested to see all of your new trail running content as it starts to ease in.
I'm glad that you have impeccable taste in pop tarts too.
Love the hoodie!
This is great! I think you'll be amazing at Dolomyths!! And Pikes Peak.
Excellent! Truly excellent. Couldn't happen to a better person. You could have been a violin player and things would have turned out well.
Awsome Q&A Allie thank you for taking the time to answere questions i had a few in mind that you answered. I am looking forward supporting your journey as best as I can. Im sure you will have a wondeful time over europe. Is spencer and georgie going to be traveling with you? Good luck on your 15k race on saturday rooting for you. Have a great rest of the week.
It’s the sprinkles they use on the cherry pop tart!
Oops, I forgot to add the most important word, 'prominently,; in and outside of competition.
Sounds like answer is trails, trails, trails!!
and road and maybe track!
It sounds very exciting... I'll buy some of their products and give them away as gifts. {I have always liked (simple) trail running. I grew up speaking several languages including Spanish and Italian. I hope you enjoy Spain and Italy, etc.}
Spain and Italy seem great! Excited to experience them myself.
@@allie_ostrander 👍😃
Are you the favorite daughter? 😂😂
Great vid. Congrats on the contract. Will be fun to watch as you get into trail races!

Cherry pop tarts are sooo good
This is all very exciting. So happy for you. Is it fair to say that the choice of the 15k season kickoff race was a way to do a race that both helps you prep for some 5k/10k races on the track AND the longer-distance trail running to come this summer? Or is it mainly just the latter?
15k was an exciting new distance and the race was at an ideal time...it all just made sense for my racing schedule.
LOL love your dad's question --- I had a Qs -- what are your thoughts on recovery shoes? do you have one?
I love Birkenstocks lol. I don't have any recovery shoes!

Yea!
Bro that augghh intro 🤣
Cherry pop tarts are the BEST
I'm glad you agree!
I originally thought it was NN. The road running teams that supports like Eulid Kipchoge. I now assume that NN and NNatural are different entities.
They are different!
How does that work with track and road running since NNormal is trail and mountain running and does not have road and track shoes, are they good with you running in a pair of Aplhafly's or Vapor's or whatever is best for you for road and track? And does that mean they will look at road and track at somepoint or just stay with what they know best?
Your future is so bright you're going to need shades 😎
Great video as always. However, was there something weird with the audio or is it just my headphones?
Sorry the audio didn't sound great...I'm not sure if maybe it was because I didn't use a mic?
Allie goes racing in Italy
MAMMA MIA
MAMMA MIA is right
Hey Allie, whatever you do don’t go running through the Appalachian Mountains. Just trust me lol.
Great Q&A. FWIW I have a "runner's body" but am spectacularly slow at running - the body doth not the runner make. To answer your dad's question, I assume your dad is your favorite father?

Hey Allie, do you watch or follow any of the young runners in college?
Yes, some of them!
