WOW. Thank you all for the love on this video. I cannot even explain how grateful I feel to share this special moment with so many amazing people. It's been a long road, with a lot of ups and downs, which only makes me appreciate this moment more. I love you all!

[@Mq6vL9Bu]

The cool thing is we all know what you have gone through, and that has made you who you are. And who you are is amazing. Strong. Gritty. Determined. Confident yet humble. I was cheering like a fool amongst strangers in the park watching your win. A lot of us are backing you because we know you are the real deal, you've been genuinely you all along and to see you crushing it like this is inspiring to see.

[@jakelayman-ls7eh]

well, first of all ure best time in SC according to wicki is 9:26:96, the brief ban U were given is a joke considering that Simone Biles has clearance to take banned SEDs, cross country should be an Olympic sport, its a dam shame that it is not

[@ingeborgomahony5744]

We have been taking this ride with you for a while now and know how much you have gone through and just how hard you worked. I'm a 50+ year old lady trying to keep a sub 9 minute mile race pace, and you inspire me so much to keep going.

We love YOU and are soooooooooo proud of you. ❤❤❤

[@p.martin974]

Oh my God! Why am I so freaking happy over this? Congratulations! I am unreasonably excited for you. I’m 58 years old. I run a 930 mile , And I feel like I’m flying. I feel fancy when I drink a Gatorade. My sports bras are from Walmart. I have two black toenails and a weird suntan. Sisterhood, girl , sisterhood.

[@karlismymiddlename]

What a deep look into your life

[@seanb6615]

Love this comment. I'm a middle aged dad and I'm elated for Allie, too, LOL. fan boy I guess. Haha.

I’m the same age as Allie and I also run a 930 mile! You’re doing great!

Yup! As soon as he said that i started sobbing 😂🫶

[@zackdisharoon6239]

Best thing you can hear from a runner is “I don’t even care about the time”. She truly loves racing and living in the moment and it’s cool to see

[@allie_ostrander]

Nothing feels like a win! But the PR was a nice bonus....

[@TheBrookelizabeth21]

The internet is wild, man. Someone I have never met, probably never will, but dear God if I am not so invested in this rockstar right here! I literally cried watching you win. We are all so freaking proud of you!! All that you are, all that you’ll become, and, perhaps most importantly, all that you’ve overcome to get to this moment. Soak it up, live in it, and use it to fuel all your future goals ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@allie_ostrander]

I swear the connection and support I feel from this community is the most wholesome thing on the internet! Thank you for coming along for this ride :)

[@brianmurdock-jv5lw]

Having followed from the beginning I can’t even tell you how proud I am of you. You’re just a spectacular human being, keep moving forward.

[@allie_ostrander]

Having so many people to share this with literally makes it incredibly special 🫶

[@catherinemitchell3721]

​@@allie_ostranderyou are amazing Allie.And,yes I have also watched you for years so I'm just amazed by what you've overcome to get where you are...So very happy for you🎉

[@Wings_nut]

The live stream was so much fun to watch. I wasn't sure you were going to catch Kosgei; but you did, and then some. You crushed it, Allie, with your signature finishing kick. And your face at the finish line said it all. Now you're only 1.7 seconds away from the 9:23.00 Olympic entry standard. How exciting is that? Then to pace the 10K five minutes later? That's pure beast mode right there.

[@4FunAndFitness]

You said it! Can you imagine what Trials will be like?

[@Wings_nut]

@@4FunAndFitness I've already taken the day off to watch it.

[@4FunAndFitness]

​@@Wings_nutVery cool. Whether in-person or streaming, the steeple is not one to miss!

[@Wings_nut]

@@4FunAndFitness without question

[@allie_ostrander]

Excited for the trials & racing the best in the US!

[@perrinkrisko1596]

The fact that you got up and paced a 10k right after this effort is also so insane! I’m so proud and happy for you!

[@allie_ostrander]

haha I had to at least give it a try!

[@swabia1554]

@@allie_ostrander how did the 10k go? Personally i think this should not be run at all out then right after but well this is pro level sports you are doing.

[@r.i.sorrell8271]

What does it mean to pace a 10k?

[@hazaldenizaygun7339]

pacers in a race run at a certain pace so the racers don't have to hit certain paces themselves, they can just follow the pacer without checking their clock / splits :)

[@ninamoore831]

So so so happy for you!!!!!! Just finished watching Spencer's video, then this notification pops up! Best day ever!

[@allie_ostrander]

That one-two punch 👊🤗

[@yellowcactustvz4929]

parasocial as fuck lmao

[@debrascott8775]

We BELIEVE!!! Let's goooo! Literally tears starting when Spence screamed "You Can Win This!!" What a race!!!

[@oridesandgames8704]

Same!

[@Kipperrton]

To go 4.5 years without a win but you still keep going, that is why I watch you. Congratulations on the win, Allie!

[@soccergalsara]

100.

[@taddreams]

Girl! As a former NCAA D1 athlete (swimming) who struggled with an ED and later crashed and burned (AKA major relapse) as a coach amongst the toxicity of body composition=performance culture exposed by predominately male coaches, I have followed your journey closely and COULD NOT be more proud of you!! Keep kicking ass and taking names, my dear

[@infovidasupps8640]

You can hear the love and hope in Spencer’s voice as he cheers you on What an amazing day

[@kathrynchamberlin3405]

OMG!! That kick was amazing. So happy for you to get this win. It’s the confidence builder you needed.

[@Fortunate1990]

Who’s chopping all these onions 🧅! SO HAPPY FOR YOU ALLIE!!!!🎉❤🎉❤

[@jeffmorris9523]

That was so sweet! Congratulations. PR is not your imagination. You are starting to believe, racing, fighting people off. You are not who you used to be - you’re better.

[@Vo2maxProductions]

Congrats 🎉! ...So Awesome...keep crushing it 🥇!

[@ingeborgomahony5744]

I'm in tears right now! What an amazing race for you!! 2nd, great job to Spence for cheering and being there. Finally - you won the steeplechase and THEN paced the 10k??? Altitude training agrees with you for sure!

[@katieburgess5439]

You are an absolute beast!! Winning and then literally hopping back up and pacing a 5:08 10k?? A champion, Olympic material for SURE!

[@hahafalseflag5090]

Our champion is bacckkkkkkkkkkkk. Train like a champion and you will be a champion!!! You and your team is taking care of business!! Congratulations young lady!!!!! We are here for you Allie.

[@shundt100]

KZbin is this weird realm where I want to tell people someone I know (who feels like a sister or friend) did this amazing thing like win a freakin race and trains for the Olympic trials; however, you feel like others wouldn’t understand your excitement for a stranger on the internet. Lol Anyway .. Congratulations Allie !! Can’t wait to see you in the Olympic trials !

[@allie_ostrander]

we're actually besties, I hope you know 😉

[@anjilala]

I agree lol, this is my first race. A random from KZbin in my feed, and I will from now on be invested in where Allie goes from here.

[@dcnole]

I usually wait for your vids to learn of your results. It's more fun that way. I couldn't wait this time. I knew you were going to run fast! And the thing is, you can go FASTER. And not just a little faster, either. Sub-9:15 is a very realistic target goal here. Keep fighting for it! And Coach David, keep bludgeoning this girl with positivity (and elite training guidance too...that does help)!

[@MQA2024]

I've been following Allie for YEARS, and I started crying at my desk when she started crying

[@zquark1]

My jaw is still on the floor at how you crushed the SC, then 5 minutes later paced the 10K for 2 miles at jet speed. Allie, you are in full Beast Mode!💪🙂👍

[@thomasphilyaw8593]

I am SOOOO happy for you, Allie!!! Had tears in my eyes when you turned on the afterburner and was flawless over that last barrier all the way to the finish line. I foresee a sub 9:20 for sure during the trials. You had plenty left over to spread around during that race. I wish you could feel all of the confidence we have in you. Let's go, Allie!❤!❤!❤

[@sharonb537]

What an affirmation that all your training with your amazing coach David was the perfect buildup. Ride this wave right into trials, what a huge confidence boost. Love how you picked off all the other runners that did a lot of work early on one by one. Agree going right to the front at the beginning was key. You raced SO SMART!!!

[@dorothykern8537]

That is amazing!!! I literally started crying, I'm so proud of you. Ride that high all the way to the Trials!!

[@erinkim3404]

I’m not crying you’re crying 😭❤️

[@MJ59656]

Hi Allie. I’m a younger distance runner and have been running since I was in elementary school. I’ve been trying to get better at running, but It’s been hard since I struggle a lot with discouraging thoughts. I haven’t followed you long, but I watched you Sunday night on livestream, and you were phenomenal! Wishing you the best of luck at the Olympic trials!

[@p.martin974]

I get a kick out of the cry/laugh at the end of hard workouts or races. Ali, you run for all the right reasons. Win, lose or draw.

[@peytonbuzz]

I've been following you since high school and all the way through college I'm a 60 year old man and that made me shed a few tears of joy

[@NK-cs3tq]

Spencer ‘whooping and hollering’ brought the happy tears - you looked amazing, my heart!

[@megsiro]

spencer’s “YOU CAN WIN!!” was so hype

[@abbygillaspie7135]

Yaaaay!! Even though I knew you won the race, I was on the edge of my seat! Unfortunately,I won't be able to be present at Hayward to watch you at the trials, as I am going through chemo right now for breast cancer. But I will definitely be watching you live from home in Eugene and will be cheering you on with all I've got. You've got this, Allie! What a huge confidence boost! Much love, big hugs from your fellow Alaskan 🩷

[@ellen9925]

You did it Allie O. You did it. Spencer is the best guy ever

[@EricS-uf9mv]

I can't believe you paced the 10k barely minutes after winning & PR-ing your steeple! You are SO ready for Trials! Congrats

[@RayLabs]

That was your type of race. Guts racing is your strength. Well done on the 9:24

[@pennypackmtb2542]

As a long time fan, I am so proud of your win. You made this old man get all emotional. Onward Allie, don't look back. The future is yours!

[@curtisCclarke]

[@ellenmoeller]

I am so happy for you! I’ve literally been checking your feed all day and was so grateful for Spencer‘s recap too! You are doing so much for the sport and now you are showing all those girls that yes, they can be strong and healthy and fast!

[@ondrejsmejkal1525]

"You can win this!" was such a powerful moment. I am tempted to download Spencer's voice and put it between all songs in my running playlist.

[@amelialarroque757]

Not me tearing up along with you😭 i’m so happy for you allie, your joy is infectious and i think it inspires all your fans to push themselves and work harder. No matter how this season ends, you are so incredible!!

[@zaneclone]

If you didn't before (I'm sure you did)- you know know how important psychology and confidence is to racing- and racing well... Once you realised you were "in this", there was no looking back... You won't be peaking post altitude yet either !! Very impressive Allie... there's more to come also !! Hats off to you pacing the 10,000 straight after lol !!!

[@Ruigi01]

Been checking your channel every hour today for this video! Congrats, I've loved following your journey so far! Edit: Just finished watching the race, that finish was incredible!!

[@jrtodd-br4zc]

I have no idea how I ended up here and seeing all the comments while watching the video I didn’t understand fully. But seeing the emotion when you finished…that was real…wow I can see why all these comments are being made. So here is another total KZbin stranger saying, congrats girl. You’ve got another new fan.

[@RT-dk7yv]

What a privilege to witness your journey. Thanks Allie. What a race.

[@colleenkensey2580]

Oh my goodness, Allie!! This may be the best thing I've ever watched! Your finish was so strong! I was grinning ear to ear, anxiously waiting for the finish, but then you shot it out of the park! Gosh, girl, you are so talented! Thanks for sharing your journey with us! Can't wait to see what the future holds for you!

[@fiveafterseven]

So glad that you had such a great race!!!

[@harshitasehgal8283]

i actually teared up over this. i’ve been watching you for so long pet much since the beginning and after your stress fracture injuries i felt even closer because i had the same injuries before. now seeing you win this and making so much exceptional progress over this year feels so personal. like it’s possible to recover and do even better than before. congrats so so much sister.

[@trinityruelas3171]

Ally you ran an incredible race! I’m so glad I got to watch you do it in person, I’ve been running after college and trying to get back to where I was before but it’s been a struggle. Seeing how you were able to stay mentally tough when moves were made throughout your race is so inspiring. Next time I race I will channel your toughness! Congrats again and looking forward to seeing you race at the Trials!

One of your best vlogs yet and not just because of your victory! You do great commentary and a lot of the stuff you were saying I was thinking while watching your race. I'm a big Geordie Beamish fan and found myself screaming, "Don't lose contact" at you as I would scream at Geordie when he ran. Luckily, you both have great kicks along with great running futures. So happy for you overcoming your eating disorder to run a PB! Great job and keep it up!

[@johnrwilker]
