Hey beautiful!! Wow so much to say!! You are braver than me getting in multiple days’ worth of training into one 😂 you are built of strong stuff! Spencer’s 100% right: you’d disappear into the distance and over the horizon running alongside me! 🏃‍♀️👋✨ we all have our strengths and if those were your first tries of some of the movements then they looked a whole lot cleaner than mine! I adored what you said at the end about challenging those rules in your head 👏👏 I hope you never stop challenging them, way beyond health and fitness 🤍

[@allie_ostrander]

Hello! Thank you so much for being here and for everything that you do for the fitness and wellness space. I have loved watching your content and have felt so inspired by you. I agree that we all have our strengths! Comparing my movements to yours was just for a but of fun and to give your athleticism the credit it deserves! Best of luck to you in the recovery from your injury and preparation for your ultramarathon ahead! I will be cheering you on the whole way!

[@natachaoceane]

@@allie_ostrander you're mega kind, thank you for everything 🥺 I'm rooting hard for you back!

[@crookedarrow3535]

Can I say I love Natasha? Is that appropriate? She looks so… I don’t know, don’t have the words… and yet she’s a hardcore athlete. Three hours on a stationary bike? How do you even do that without falling asleep or poking yourself in the eye with a sharp stick because that would be preferably over being so incredibly bored. Thanks for putting together this video Allie, I’ll be mixing in some of these exercises in my work-out today too (not the three-hour stationary bike ride). Now let me see, I think we have some tofu in the freezer. It’s lunch time!

[@elliegrace7393]

Yay!!! So happy to see pretty much my two favorite youtubers in the same place! I really appreciate the sanity, balance, and perspective you both bring to this space

[@MusclesandBooks]

@@crookedarrow3535 LOL! Reminds me of the time I had to do a six-hour trainer ride during Ironman training because we got a very-late season cold/snowy day. I put in Lord of the Rings and that's how I managed to get through it, but I'm pretty sure part of my soul died that day.

[@nothing-q4u]

“you make running fast look casual." Well said Spence.

[@allie_ostrander]

my hype man

[@sarahs12345]

"your [food] rules are worth challenging"

[@allie_ostrander]

It really applies to all areas of life!

[@RosieOutdoors]

This was such a fun video. She does make it look SO easy somehow. Appreciated the "how I would look vs how Natacha looked" because yep, same. I'm not even doing 3 hours, but 20 minutes on a bike has me looking the same. Also, that one legged squat on the bosu ball - you smashed it!

[@allie_ostrander]

haha I am always soaked in sweat by the time I get 20min in!

[@hikinggsdmom8754]

I’m a huge Natacha fan too! I love that you actually tried a day in the life and walked away with an adjusted perspective on some aspects. Makes me want to try and attempt something similar to see what I could learn. Thank you for this!

[@allie_ostrander]

Yes! I feel like that happens every time I live like someone else for the day...it's a great way to challenge myself and get out of my comfort zone.

[@becca5184]

I relate so so very much to the “this is how I look compared to an influencer doing the same thing” humor. But who needs to be aesthetically pleasing when you’re working hard! Keep going Allie you’re amazing!

[@allie_ostrander]

Haha oh for sure! Showing a side-by-side comparison was just for a bit of fun. I realize that we both have our own strengths and that is perfect!

[@GuitarTraveller]

Great vid, Allie! Very creative and engaging. Loved Spencer's line... "you make running fast look casual". How true.

[@empritchard13]

the ultimate crossover, two icons !!! also that pistol squat on the half bosu, go off im impressed

[@allie_ostrander]

lol to be called an icon along with Natacha...goals :)

[@limonabr]

It literally says on their site and the platform itself that they don't recommend standing on flat side.

[@Larkbrown328]

Clicked so fast, am I a stan?

[@runnerX007]

love the camaraderie and friendship in the KZbin space! you each bring your own personality/specialty and I'm glad you're not *actually* trying to be just like each other ;-)

[@trimaximi]

Making running fast look casual is the BEST. Go Allie

[@climbingjohnnie]

This was an awesome crossover. As someone who grew up in Alaska, your whole race career has been amazing to watch. I'm also a scientist and ultrarunner, so I love Natacha's channel. Keep making these awesome videos! You are both so inspiring!

[@allie_ostrander]

new video similar to this coming tomorrow ;)

[@Jtexy]

Your kinda’lifestyle’ vids are getting even better every time and are really funny sneaky quirky. That one logged wobbly lunge you did was the syrup on the pancake!

[@allie_ostrander]

thank you!! I really enjoy making this type of video, so I love getting this positive feedback :)

You two are my favourite kickass and seriously credible female KZbinrs.

[@cassieideran4881]

Glad you did this. I had a couple of her videos pop up but assumed she was an annoying influencer. Will check her out now!

[@allie_ostrander]

Not annoying at all!

[@wednesdaygreenleaf9578]

The crossover I never expected!!!! Yay!!

[@debrascott8775]

I was skeptical about Natcha at first, but I am super impressed by her over time.

[@allie_ostrander]

She's so great! Her videos are works of art.

[@JessieDolan1]

Great video! Yours and Natasha's are definitely two of my very favorite channels!

[@allie_ostrander]

Awh! It is so cool to hear that some of her subscribers overlap with mine!

[@Zooga_Boy]

Loved it! Your vids are so well made each week. And they are wholesome AF. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on KZbin! Way to go Allie! Making killer content even when you're injured. 😎

[@abbieamavi]

Loved this video, both you and Natacha are my favorite fitness channels right now! you're so open and genuine, it's great to have found your channel off your ED story, see you doing so well, and also find a fellow runner! :)

[@allie_ostrander]

I'm glad you found my channel! Very happy to have you here :)

[@em-jd4do]

woooo! crossover !! my two favourite sports youtubers!

[@chibisakura5371]

The people that you choose to emulate and look up to have a profound impact on your life! You are that person to so many people too, thank you for reminding us to challenge the rules we sometimes have in the back of our mind, ED related or otherwise holding us back from living life in a more fulfilling way. Looked like a fun challenge too! You're right, those strength exercises are no joke 😂

[@allie_ostrander]

Yes, of course! We all need a reminder to question our thought patterns and think critically about what is truly best for us! And you got that right! The strength exercises were tough!

[@novio8]

Thanks for bringing her channel to my attention. Great video again!

[@jbeer2284]

"You make running fast look casual ". That was awesome.

[@ilovetheearth7065]

I love how realistic this video was!! It felt like I was right at home with you! 🫶

[@allie_ostrander]

good! I mean...you basically were ;)

[@WhimsicalAdvantage]

I'm currently doing one of her fitness plans - its awesome. I love trying new things at the gym, and the nutrition is on point and well researched/resourced.

[@allie_ostrander]

I love all of her content so much!

[@ashleytalkington4474]

I clicked so fast I am a huge fan of both of y’all and this is one of the most unexpected (but exciting) crossovers ever.

[@allie_ostrander]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It is my dream crossover lol

[@ritaotoole197]

This was awesome Allie .. now I’m following Natasha !

[@annt7384]

You worked out so hard and then fueled your body like a top chef. Damn girl, ya really got in there and did all that! Kudos. Sometimes I wonder what I’d be without all the mental illness. Cognitive distortions were like my jam, for years. Then I started taking enough meds to make a difference so I could do the big work. It’s a rough slog but worth it.

[@allie_ostrander]

Keep slogging through!

[@marlo7218]

Love your words on challenging the rules in your own head- so smart-thanks!

[@equestrianwhotravels]

Love this video!! Love your personality!!! Natasha makes it look so easy... this was fun to watch!

[@garylarowe8741]

So funny Allie! Never heard of Natacha. Oh man, 3 hrs on a stationary bike? I’m getting ready for knee replacement in 2mo so I can do 3hr bike rides… on OR coast, etc. My racing days are over, but I love biking, swimming and scuba-ing. Go for it while you can, rooting for ya!

[@allie_ostrander]

goof luck in your surgery! Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery :)

[@honebeadsmith5937]

Great video Allie. You continue to impress and make me laugh. Cool of you to give Natacha big props and neat that she responded so nicely. Hopefully the youtube algorithms kick your videos out to more people as your humor is contagious and I think more people could use some laughs in their lives. So much anger and division gripping so many. Plus I know any success you've had you have earned and as much as anyone you deserve a big following. Nnormal killed it when they signed you. Ok back to life.. best of luck to you and spencer, Ari, and the entire crew (Georgie included.. my wife and I love our doggie). These years go by so fast.. keep enjoying them!

[@BeccaRoelofs]

Never heard of this person but I will start following their content for inspiration. I loved this video format Ali. You are such an influencer?!!

[@allie_ostrander]

haha I definitely have a little bit of influencer in me! I just enjoy making and sharing content :)

[@alexandrawynn8241]

I personally love the coffee-making content. It’s relatable. I recently bought a Chemex to experience another way to make coffee and I love it!

[@allie_ostrander]

the Chemex is a game changer for sure!

[@mollyalexander8406]

This video was GREAT!! I loved it and loved getting to hear about another health and wellness girl! Btw, I’m highly impressed w your lifting esp the 1 legged squat on the bosu, like what - 🤯. I will need to check out some more lifting vids now. Keep up the great work Allie!! (I hope you’re shins are healing ❤️‍🩹)

[@allie_ostrander]

Thank you! And yes, for more lifting content, Natacha's social media is definitely a great resource!

Awesome video Allie! Love your attitude and motivation!

[@lauras8342]

[@jkinnicutt]

Love seeing the Freihofer's shirt. Hope to see you there again this year!!!

[@randylazer2894]

I so appreciated your great words of wisdom that "we need to normalize female fitness influencers talking about bowel movements!" I believe of all of your subscribers, I would be #1 on the list for approving of your great insights on that topic; having shared with you of what I did to my poor running bud who endured 2 1/2 miles of extreme gastric duress in the absolute middle of nowhere, for which I sprinted ahead to have the bartender tell him that the only bathrooms within 4 miles were broken, locked, and that he didn't even have the key! The expression on my best friend's face...priceless! You should do that to Spencer sometime! When I saw the green pancakes (which apparently were quite tasty as you are an excellent chef) they reminded me of these blueberry pancakes my ex-wife made an eon ago. God bless her, she was trying to please me, but she had a huge plate of pancakes that were about 10 inches in diameter, and they were green! If they were supposed to be green then call them greenberry pancakes! Believe me, I was scared! I very nervously took the first bit, and literally it was like she warmed up a Goodyear tire! I couldn't chew it, and I could barely get it down. I know that she cooked these things out of love and caring (or in hopes of a payout from my life insurance policy!) so I am chewing and chewing and chewing, and pouring on syrup. It took me 15 minutes to finish one pancake, and my stomach felt like I had eaten a concrete block with blueberry syrup on it. So I thanked her for all that she did, and was getting up, and she says..."well, don't you want another? I cooked all morning for you!" So true story....I sat back down, experiencing sheer gastronomic misery, but thankfully she had left the kitchen table. So I took 3/4 of that pancake, and tossed it to the cat, and he wouldn't eat it either! So I wrapped it up in paper towel, stuffed it in my pocket, and eventually snuck out to the dumpster. Thus, when I saw green pancakes on your video, I had a terror filled flashback! BTW the chicken gyros...nicely done! I hope you are recovered from your shin splints, or if you aren't there yet, I hope you get there really soon. Sending great wishes for you to be training and setting more PR's this year.

[@allie_ostrander]

hahaha you know it's bad when the cat won't eat it!

[@randylazer2894]

@@allie_ostrander Exactly! Yes, when the cat refuses to eat what I cooked for dinner, I take that as a pretty strong hint!

1. Wooo Go Mill City Running! 2. Watch your fingers with the knife! Gotta curl those puppies in. The food looked super good though, gotta try all of that! This video was super fun! I just love watching runners try different workouts as even though it's not straight-up running, it can still benefit a ton for running. It might not look easy and athletic at first, but everyone gotta start somewhere.

[@allie_ostrander]

strength training definitely benefits running!

I loved this video! I agree, Natache is a fantastic role model. I love her videos. But also, Allie! You are strong AF - a pistol squat on an upside down bosu ball??! Wtf. It doesn't matter if it looks awkward that is 🍌 s. Anyway, great message. I have to keep reminding myself to fuel better during workouts. Mine is laziness and an aversion to eating a crapload of gels. But I'm going to do it tomorrow for my marathon pace workout. Your video and also the SWAP podcast today has made be double down on this. Maybe that is partially why I'm still dealing with lingering patellar tendonitis.
