In this video, I go over the long road between my first collegiate season and my first NCAA title. It was a physically, mentally, and emotionally difficult journey, but, at the end of the day, it was all worth it. I hope this video can showcase how brutal injuries and setbacks can be, but also how those experiences can sometimes lead us in the direction we were meant to go. #NCAA #TrackandField #Steeplechase #NationalChampion #AllieOstrander #MollySeidel

@johnblakethejbgroup1573 Год назад

Had a little bit of tears myself, going to show this to my son so he can learn what kind of dedication is needed to become a champion. Thanks for the inspiring video!

@jtzutube Год назад

Most enjoyable.

@sofiaperalta9091 Год назад

Can you tell me what journal you're using?

@salemal-murisi5784 Год назад

ur amazing, wished i could give you a hug for all the hard work you put in Allie

@CityBeautiful Год назад

Really cool to hear this story directly from you. Do more of these if you can!

@allie_ostrander Год назад

Yep, I'll definitely do more!

@closmasmas9080 Год назад

Woah two of my favorite RU-vidrs interacting with one another 🤯

@thatonegirl8975 Год назад

Love your videos. I'm definitely not a runner. I'm 25 and just ran 5 miles unbroken for the first time this week. But watching this type of video is definitely encouraging for me to keep trying to improve, even if it's just recreationally

@jamiegreen3960 Год назад

You ran 5 miles you are a runner 💪

@allie_ostrander Год назад

I agree with Jamie: you ARE a runner! but thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed :)

@BerdaFN Год назад

You’ve gotta do more videos like this because you’re one of those people who I can listen to all day 😅

@allie_ostrander Год назад

haha well I will just have to make more! In the mean time I guess you can just watch this one on repeat ;)

@RayLabs Год назад

Very proud of you Allie. Not just for your accomplishments, but how you have accepted and handled adversity. The final chapter has not been written and I look forward to seeing what the future brings to your running career. And don't forget all those Mt. Marathon races make you one of the baddest of the Badass runners around. Who else can say they won National Track Championships and the hardest 5K around that anyone can ever do. No One But You. (I was talking with Emilie a couple weeks ago when I was up in Norway training and she remembers that you helped make her win an honest win).

@allie_ostrander Год назад

Final chapter isn’t even in progress yet 👊

@NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMING Год назад

Such a beast. I think the real secret here is those 5 lb dumbbell curls, letting you MUSCLE past the competition 💪🏿😤

@hallehamilton555 Год назад

I think it is an injustice to not touch on how toxic and self-depricating this mentality with running is. It’s clear that overtraining and underfueling were the biggest contributing factors to such monumental success early on. Becoming good at running takes years of healthy training. Stress fractures indicate low bone density/overtraining. Success is meaningless when the message being sent is taking shortcuts that leads to long term damage in the sport. Fellow Mountain West runner and sub-16 5k gal speaking here.

@allie_ostrander Год назад

If you follow me on social media, you know that I struggled with an eating disorder in high school and college. I didn’t explicitly talk about it in this video, but seeing a dietician and therapist was part of my recovery from my sacral injury. I didn’t make this video to say that shortcuts were what got me a title…it’s more to show that success is almost never linear. Do I wish I could go back in time and set a better example for training and fueling in a sustainable and healthy way? HELL YES. But I don’t have that luxury, so now I advocate for mental health and share my story to help others avoid the same mistakes.

@hallehamilton555 Год назад

@@allie_ostrander I understand that you do advocate for healthy habits and healthy training, but if at any time during your story it was not the case, I feel that that should be shared rather than overlooked. I also understand that this may have been intended to be a light-hearted video, but I can’t support stories that don’t reveal the whole picture. In my opinion it’s not right to talk about training over 80 miles/week as a true freshmen and then not at all relate that to some of the injuries you experienced, and on top of that, not touch on how disordered eating affected this level of training. It ultimately sends the wrong message even if it’s intended to be positive.

@kwd-2023 Год назад

Great video, much enjoyed! Love all running stories!

@2calljohnson175 Год назад

I'm 67 and what hooked me on following your career was the mountain marathons in Alaska. A long time ago I ran track and Xcountry lost interest in it but you got me back into it. I am a lifetime fan of yours. Good luck in the future.

@rickfee2001 Год назад

Thanks for taking the time and creating this...enjoyed the story a great deal from the up down and up!

@amazanto Год назад

Loved it! Thanks for sharing an important chapter of your life with us, Allie!

@ingridfirmansyah3038 Год назад

@camilarosa6351 Год назад

It's so nice to watch you tell your stories, Allie. Keep going! Big fan from Brazil, here. ☺

@lottielangan874 Год назад

This was so inspirational, amazing running well done 🙌🏻

@sarahhendrickson5030 Год назад

Love your story! Very relatable with the injuries, I was a skier and 6 knee surgeries and 1 back surgery it felt like I could never stay healthy. I’m so glad you are on the right path again and staying healthy with rest and nutrition that you’ve talked about!

@fabs21 Год назад

Your my favorite story teller. Thank you for sharing your experience 😊

@allyson-- Год назад

Such a cool video, Allie!! I especially loved the emotional training log entries. Sometimes that's the most prominent aspect of a run! The steeplechase footage has me in awe

@CLTRunningR Год назад

Loved this so much! Please make more- you are incredible to watch and listen to what was going through your head!

@jasminmuneton3359 Год назад

you are my inspiration. thank you for this video!

@thegreatalyssa Год назад

It's great to hear the stories. (I have decades of running journals that I still handwrite today. And I got lots of stories. I have remembered so many training sessions of others and some I wrote down.)

@Mountaindwell4 Год назад

I was born and raised in Boise. Like many, a die hard Bronco football fan, but you have definitely created a massive difference in gaining ground/momentum for the running program. Enjoyed cheering you on during your college career! Go broncos!

@allie_ostrander Год назад

Go broncos!!

@casskmiec9472 Год назад

These voiceover videos are my absolute favorite! Loved hearing your story.

@willdevenport6980 Год назад

@markw5805 Год назад

Thank you for doing this. Shows my kids the life of a runner more than I could ever teach them

@yeahbaby3239 Год назад

I loved your VLOG! Arguably your best! In my opinion 👍🏻it’s interesting listening to you and what you were going through and what was on your mind going into the races as well as when you were in the moment. I also loved listening to you talk and describe your training. My family and I had the privilege of watching you race prefontaine classic at Stanford. We were also lucky to get a picture of you and my daughter 👍🏻. Great memories!

@jakazeo_o9618 Год назад

This was a wonderful video and I’m happy that you accomplished everything you did even after adversity, inspiring 🙏

@ellaronci2703 Год назад

you are such an inspiration to me while im looking to improve my 5k time. im probably never going to be at your level of running since xc is not my main sport, but the mentality you describe is something that is really going to stick with me! super cool hearing your take on this season I also had a knee/hip injury this year that took me out of lots of training, as well as my HS state meet and MOCs, (obviously not as high stakes as your events) it sucks, so sorry you had to go through that

@marktaylor4458 Год назад

That was a great story and a great story teller. I am 74 years old but I was once young and an ok high school hurdler. I ran a 14.5 my junior year but did not do well at the state meet. It always suprises me how much ones mind is needed to be a great athlete. I often think back on those glory days and envy you your future. Great video.

@bluenetmarketing Год назад

You are quite an amazing human example for determination and commitment to excellence. Congratulations on your wins and on your amazing effort!

@halenuryazc442 Месяц назад

you really inspire me, ı had a bad reraltationship with my body with food. I am curently in a healhty weight loss journey because ı am a very sporty person but ı gained a lot of weight fast ( curentlly ı play ice hockey) but running was somethink that ı hate. I started to train for 5k race ( never run 5k before in my life) and watching your videos not just motivates me for running ıt also helps me to have a heathy relatationship with my body and food. Thank you so much

@aboimpinto Год назад

great story .. thanks for sharing ...

@joshschoenick Год назад

I think it’s really helpful for the younger runners to understand the trials and tribulations along the way. Most would have only highlighted the high points. But seeing the fortitude you had to persevere is incredible. #neverquit And that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is yours forever. Thanks for sharing your journey through your own experience.

@dragunslayer8356 Год назад

I have to be honest and say I've never heard of you ( I'm from New Zealand 🇳🇿 ) but I really enjoyed this glimpse into your sporting achievements. I'll be watching out for you as you move forward in your athletic pursuit.

Hey Allie. I’m walking this week for the first time since December 4th when I fractured my tibial plateau,hoping to just lightly jog again to show my dogs. I truly understand these big injury timeouts and also the eating disorder issues. I love your videos. I was never at your level back in the 80s,my college was tiny (Cornell),but I love your videos.

@fentresshill3990 Год назад

Awesome! Insightful! Inspirational! Thanks for sharing :)

@largeeddie Год назад

I immediately thought of that "Fake news" tweet when I saw the thumb for this video. Legendary! With a disclaimer that I'm not enough of a fanboi to have committed this to memory, I looked up your times and it's just crazy to have personal *worst* of 10 flat, and that was a preliminary heat and IIRC in actual severe Texas heat. It was awesome seeing you on the track pacing a steeplechase this summer and I look forward to seeing you out front going for the win again.

@Itsfalcon9 Год назад

Good job telling your story! very cool to see Maddie Boreman as well in this film!

@toddkearney6464 Год назад

@beverlycole4836 Год назад

Wow! You're an amazing athlete! True grit. This voice over vlog has gotten a lot of hits. It's nice to hear how you find the strength to get out there and run just from your college races. Well done! I'm a big fan.

@allie_ostrander Год назад

It definitely wasn't the path to a national title that I envisioned for myself, but it worked!

@danlds17 11 дней назад

Allie Allie O - I expect you to win a steeplechase event at Paris this year, you OWN this event.

@ronjab2151 Год назад

Really nice your video, it shows the hard way to be on top. I follow your videos since a half year and like ti see you run. it motivate me to train different for more speed and be proud auf my individual times für 5k oder 10k.

@oftenwrongphong Год назад

Love this video. Thank you. I feel you on the injuries from over mileage. After so many problems, I realized why so many runners ride their bikes as part of the cardio work.

@allie_ostrander Год назад

biking is now a huge part of my training!

@stevendorsey4882 Год назад

Great to relive that running history with you. I remember very well watching your collegiate career and your nationals win, which was a true redemption after those plaguing injuries. You'll always be a national champion and a world class athlete.

@allie_ostrander Год назад

Fun to relive for sure.

@ricksticksgaming Год назад

Great video Allie! You did an awesome job putting your story together in a video and narrating it. This will be very insightful for any up-and-coming athletes and a fond memory for you and your family to look back on. All the best for the future.

@allie_ostrander Год назад

thank you! It took a lot of digging to get all the material together, but I think it was worth it.

@thomasphilyaw8593 Год назад

Loved reliving all the races I've watched you compete in over the years. Your Olympic trials debut was awesome to see, but broke my heart not seeing you make the team. You're an inspiration to all runners great and small.

@allie_ostrander Год назад

It was sad to miss the team, but still a great experience!

@danielnalley3087 Год назад

What a awesome story!!!!! You are a true inspiration to those who enter the world of distance running… keep killing it

@machineofadream Год назад

I never got to run much past high school due to injuries, so it's awesome to have such an insanely detailed retelling of someone else's experience. Not many elite athletes will go into this kind of depth with a whole year of training and competitions, but it's the only way I can understand what that experience is like. The ship sailed for me already. I'll never have my own experience like yours. Thank you for sharing and giving those like me a glimpse.
