Improving so quickly, that's awesome! And you know what you need to do to get even better. If you can do this in 6 days, imagine yourself 6 months from now!
You're doing amazing!! Only 6 days after the other race- holy cow! So happy to see you enjoying it and so glad you still raced after Pikes Peak! This is fun following you on your trail and training adventures - I'm also excited to see more! & inspired to do some trail racing myself
Congrats Allie! You really have the heart of a lion. So glad this race went so much better for you. Really neat to get to run this with your sister. That had to make this even better. Great smiles.. both of you. Be safe and stay healthy.
You and your sister are so much alike. In the car before the warm up your sistwr said something i have heard you say before just every workout. She said, "yeah, its gonna be good!" Then there was the shoot just before the start of the race, you looked at the camera, smiled and it was like the gun went off and you went to 100% focus in an instance. Happy you were able to put Pikes Peak behind you. It wont be your last bad race but im sure you know this. We can do everything right and its the things out of our control that can all go bad... I've been there. Dont look at Pikes Peak as negative, turn it into a positive. I know in someways you have already, this race shows. If haven't already decided, you should go back to Pikes Peak next year, show the course whs boss and show yourself you can run good there. Love your smile while running, its always awesome seeing people smile while enjoying what they do, even when its hard and unforgiving at times.
Hi Allie. Congratulations on a great race and top 10 finish! I'm really happy for you that it was such a huge improvement from Pike's Peak. That was clearly an anomaly and you are headed in the right direction. I ran this race too and happened to be just a few feet from you on the start line and wished you good luck. I never imagined an amateur like me would line up in a race next to a pro like you, but that's one of the cool things about these Golden Trail races. I agree with you about nearly dying on the very long and very steep Dragon's Back climb! Of course you finished the race way faster than I did, but I did somehow manage to win the "old man" age group (50-59). And congrats also to your sister who also crushed it!
Way to go Allie!! Was able to catch you on the Mountain Outpost livestream! Amazing what a week can do! Another tough course and tough field and you rocked it.
Yk Allie you may not see this. But I was recently struggling with my love for the sport. However, after watching ur videos and Spence’s videos I’ve started to fall in love with it all over again. Thank you for being such an amazing help and to see your progress. I hope to do something special in my running career these next few days
My hero!! All your life you've been destined for greater and greater achievements!! No quit in you! Soooooo glad you're sis didn't die. I think we'll make you an honorary Mexican burrito lover...you've certainly earned it. 😊 #9
Great! 'E-race' that last race from your memory. Back on track. Rolling ankles is always my great fear as well because it happened in some cross country races but ever since switching to minimalist footwear this does not happen anymore, although it's hard to do the mileage, so it's a tradeoff.
I'm so happy for you, how quickly you achieved a new and much better experience. I also take Pikes Peak as a beautiful proof, how you're chasing your dreams and how you're striving forward AND upward.
Great Job Allie is say finishing 9th is awsome that looked like a tough race i'm very proud of you did great im looking forward to seeing what else you have planned keep up the great running Allie i didn't know your sister liked to run to thats cool im sure that was fun to run the race together how was the hot spring i have never been to one i plan on seeing one someday
Not uncommon for uphill running and having it that high shows a lot of effort. With some more acclimatization it is probably a bit lower but it takes a bit more then a few days.
@@paxundpeace9970 my experience is different. When I go to altitude from sea level I can’t max out heart rate. I understand physiologically that the heart does not get enough oxygen and therefore will not beat faster. This does get better the longer I spend at altitude. Her HR maxing out is a sign of her overall cardiovascular health. Altitude be damned.
Ah man, was watching the Golden Trail World Series replay and saw Allie O!!! Great run and finish!!! Seems your fitness is getting there, and the more technical work you do the better you'll get. Looking forward to seeing you more in the GTWS stuff in the future (I hope)! Keep grinding it out and have fun!
Excellent episode. Nice real room to stay in overnight, much better than a look-alike motel, great shots of the race in progress. Good job in the race. Nice bikini shot. 40,000 is in the bag.
Congrats on your very strong finish! Next time you're in Mammoth (next year!) be sure to stop by Schat's Bakery. They are well known for their sheepherder bread but everything there is delicious.
You have put out truly strong and excellent efforts in some incredibly challenging races. For your Pike's Peak video, I had shared what I hoped was a very positive comment, and that just vanished from UA-cam. Then I put it up again, and saw it, and it vanished again. So I hope I hadn't written anything that wasn't right, as I was so impressed by your incredible effort on what might be the most difficult half marathon in this country. I gave you a "10" on the guts gauge for doing that race, and thought that if you would have had about 10 days more to acclimatize (from my experiences of climbing Colorado's highest peak in Leadville, and then the next day running 2 miles in 17 minutes and change instead of 14 minutes at 10,000 feet of elevation.....ooh what did I notice that was missing....oxygen!). After enduring Pikes Peak, doing this race 6 days later....holy moly! That really shows how awesome your mental fortitude and overall strength is. I think you are as smooth on a downhill as a glass of 20 year old scotch! I remember I did a 10k, 6 days after a marathon, let alone running up a mountain for about 10 more miles beyond that as you did, and I was toast...didn't get out of bed for a day and half after that. You have a great sense of humor, as you cracked me up when you finally saw your sister finishing saying "She's not dead...I'm so happy!" I know that feeling, from my first marathon, where my bud was faster than me, but after finishing, I waited for him for 45 minutes, and was perpetually checking the medical tent. That scenario happened a few more times, wondering if my buds were on the course or at the hospital! Congrats, as after what you survived at Pike's Peak, and likely dug about as deep as you could to finish that race, and then to take on another real beast of a race at high elevation, and doing great..... that leads to my recommended name change for you, switching out Ostrander, so your full name would be.... Allie Awesome! You are right, as this is just the start, for which you are so strong, both mentally and physically, and you are and will be getting better, and better, and better!
Thanks for leaving a comment here! I'm sorry that your comment on the last video disappeared...I'm not sure why that would have happened. Anyway, I definitely think that altitude acclimation would have helped me at Pikes Peak and probably this race too. I'll keep that in mind for next year! Waiting for a friend or family member to finish a somewhat dangerous race is so nerve wracking. I wanted Tay to do well, but, most of all, I just wanted her to be safe!
@@allie_ostrander Thank you Allie! Oh my goodness, you are so right of the worry for those whom we love being on a mountain, and not knowing if they are running or injured. I guess it is better to be faster and the worrier, than the worriee....I think I am committing some grammatical heresy there! Maybe a GPS tracker for Tay? She did great! BTW....do you have any idea of what happened to that runner who disappeared in the Mt. Marathon race? I have read everything from speculation that he ran into a wormhole (but apparently nobody else did), and didn't know if you had an idea or what the locals might think? Great, great job in one amazing week of running close to 30 miles with incredible elevation gains. You Go Allie O!
Allie, way to crush it at Mammoth Lakes! You really put in a hard push to try and close the gap to Elise! Was so excited to see you come across the finish line!😊🤙🤙🤙
Girl you did amazing, so proud of you. Oh when you added some of the challenges like falling, rolling your ankle, etc., well maybe the biggest challenge was that you freakin ran the Pikes Peak Marathon Ascent race just 6 days earlier. OMG!!!! I know that you may have Jakob I. levels of recovery, but I think if you in reality had one more week of recovery you would have crushed everyone in this race. ☺ YOU GO GIRL!
lots of people that I raced at Pikes were in this one too! I thought it seemed like a crazy turnaround, but I guess trail runners are just built different...
Doing your best. Learning. Improving. Enjoying the process. Feeling proud. What more can you ask for. Congratulations. ☮☮🕊🕊☯☯🙏🙏4 Ukraine. May all your ups and downs have only soft landings.
Just the path not having snow would have made this race better than the last. Could be the answer is Taylor needs to run every race you enter. 🤷🏻♂️ Well done!
I'm so stoked that you are trail racing!! Been waiting for you to realize your potential and make the switch, for a couple years. AWESOME!! I'm bummed to hear that you were so hard on yourself over Pike's. You did excellent in that race, and my gawd.... there's nothing harder, as a Half, on the planet! Your racing here was excellent, and you were right there in the fight. Fantastic job! A couple tips. A Naked Running Band is all you need, and will allow you to switch to a lighter sports bra that's not so restrictive to chest expansion during breathing. You don't need much for these "short" distance races. Like maybe 1 or 2 GU Roctanes with caffeine and a coupe of peeled tangerines to wash them down. And a partially filled 17oz camelbak soft flask, in the back panel of the running band. Nothing in your hands!! You need free arm movement. Shoes with thick padded heels will promote ankle rolling, and the wider the heel sole area is, the more unstable the shoe becomes on uneven surfaces. You'd probably love racing in something like a Merrell Trail Glove, with Injinji Toe Socks. Keep having fun, and keep up the great running!
I'm getting "Ultra Barbie" vibes off that bib. Amazing result even with the lost time from the rolled ankles & wrong turns. You gotta feel proud... but knowing Ari, he's probably grinning even more. LOL! Congrats. P.S. - why does your sister HATE being on camera so much? Did you torture her with the camera as a kid?
Amazing job to you and your sister you guys killed it!!! I am so glad that you had a much better race this time and glad that you overall felt better :) The trail looked so hard but congrats to both of you for finishing!! It's something to be very proud of I am so happy for you and keep improving and doing what your doing you're awesome!!! Were you sore after this race?
Great job! Heading to the final event in Italy or are you gonna finish the season closer to home? I reckon you can make the overall top 20 with a good showing there, I think it gives 50% more points than the 6 previous races.
Way to go Allie! I thought you were a little nuts for doing this race 6 days after your last but considering you were feeling low about it maybe only having to sit with the results for a short time was good. (Although I still think you did amazing at Pikes Peak) As someone who rolls my ankles regularly walking on flat I’m always dumbfounded how people manage to run on uneven terrain without doing the same. It’s good to know you’re human too 😉 I didn’t mean that to sound like I’m rejoicing over you rolling your ankles 🤔 Anyway, hopefully you get what I’m saying. I’m glad you enjoyed this race more than the last, good luck with your training! 💜💜
haha I totally get what you are saying! I'm for sure not completely accustomed to this terrain, so I've gotta work on strengthening those ankles until they're made of steel lol
haha the race website showed that it would be 17.2 miles on the map, but they were advertising it as a 26k? So funny! Trail running is a whole different world...
Allie, such an awesome race video! So cool you did it with your sister 😁! Great results by both of you! Did you say you were almost deceased on the ascent? 😅 Not sure why you keep trying to punish yourself so much 😜. You are making incredible progress, keep on keeping on. 🐐
Allie, I tried LMNT based on your recommendation. Salt makes my world go round' but I just couldn't hang with how salty it was. It's like drinking sea water. How do you tolerate it? Any suggestions?
I always use half a packet in 16oz of water. If that's still too salty, I would recommend diluting it ever more until the taste suits your preferences.
nah thats crazy u happened to watch at the moment she says if i can make it to the top ten so can you and then u get top ten, thats some all lowercase allie bib ENERGY its funny how both u and ari did races on back to back weekends recently w the first one being rly tough but then bouncing back and the second one looking so so good, super happy for you!! also good to see the post race burrito, even tho it shoulda been free at the finish line, tsk tsk cmon race organizers 😒😒😒
the cuteness of the bib really carried me through ;) also, I'm v disappointed that neither of my last two races have provided free burritos :( they had free pizza, but it's simply not the same..
You got lost, lost a gel, fell and rolled an ankle …..you are officially a trail runner!!! Congrats.
haha initiation complete!
Rooting so hard for someone I have never even met, that it makes me tear up.
So happy for you!!!
Greatings from a fellow sportswoman from Germany!
Wow, thank you!
Improving so quickly, that's awesome! And you know what you need to do to get even better. If you can do this in 6 days, imagine yourself 6 months from now!
My thoughts exactly ;)
You're doing amazing!! Only 6 days after the other race- holy cow! So happy to see you enjoying it and so glad you still raced after Pikes Peak! This is fun following you on your trail and training adventures - I'm also excited to see more! & inspired to do some trail racing myself
Thanks for following along :) I'm excited to share more!
Congrats Allie! You really have the heart of a lion. So glad this race went so much better for you. Really neat to get to run this with your sister. That had to make this even better. Great smiles.. both of you. Be safe and stay healthy.
It was the best to get to run it with Tay!
So what did you do a week after running up a mountain? "I was bored and ran up another mountain." 😂
hahah maybe I'll get bored again next weekend...
First top 10 in the golden trail series! With many more to come of course. Congrats!
Love seeing your sister race with you!!! You both did an awesome job and way too bounce back emotionally Allie... super proud!!!❤

Your videos always make me smile -- thanks for putting a smile on my face today!
I'm so glad! Thank you for watching!

Way to go Allie!! Was able to catch you on the Mountain Outpost livestream! Amazing what a week can do! Another tough course and tough field and you rocked it.
Learning every race!

@@allie_ostrander Amazing what you can achieve in life
I love this. I especially love that you shared the experience with your sister. Way to get back out there and keep learning.
Yes, it was so great to share this race with her!

Great job in the race. Great video as well. I appreciate you taking the time to share this with us.
I appreciate you following along with my racing and training and life!
Really liked the editing on this one! I chuckled every time the date came on screen with AD included. Just to be clear, this wasn't ancient times!
Glad you enjoyed the editing! I want to make sure that people understand this was last weekend, not millions of years ago ;)
I'm so happy for you, how quickly you achieved a new and much better experience.
I also take Pikes Peak as a beautiful proof, how you're chasing your dreams and how you're striving forward AND upward.
Great Job Allie is say finishing 9th is awsome that looked like a tough race i'm very proud of you did great im looking forward to seeing what else you have planned keep up the great running Allie i didn't know your sister liked to run to thats cool im sure that was fun to run the race together how was the hot spring i have never been to one i plan on seeing one someday
It was great for Taylor to be there! Also, the hot springs were nice. Not the best I've been to, but a nice relaxing activity for sure.
Sweet that’s your HR could get to 196 at altitude without acclimatization. That’s impressive! Congrats on the much improved performance.
I was surprised it got that high too!
Not uncommon for uphill running and having it that high shows a lot of effort. With some more acclimatization it is probably a bit lower but it takes a bit more then a few days.

Now that was fun to watch.
Keep up the good running.
Been a fan since watching you killing it at Mount Marathon...congrats on a really great result!!!
thank you!!
Good morning Allie happy Tuesday morning and I just wanted to say that you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
Excellent Allie! 9th with all that awesome. You’re sis did great as well! Here’s to the next race!
on to the next!
Excellent episode. Nice real room to stay in overnight, much better than a look-alike motel, great shots of the race in progress. Good job in the race. Nice bikini shot. 40,000 is in the bag.
Fancy bib. Glad you did well. I didn't know you had a sister. She's foxy, and a good runner, too.
Congrats on your very strong finish! Next time you're in Mammoth (next year!) be sure to stop by Schat's Bakery. They are well known for their sheepherder bread but everything there is delicious.

I always look forward to the videos. After seeing your finish on the live stream I’m happy to come here and learn more. ❤
A bit happier of a post-race video this time!
Yeah! Top ten, hot springs and Burritos! Win, win, win!!!!!
woooohooo
Great video! Super content and editing and congrats on your race. I had no idea Taylor is a great athlete too!
Yep, Taylor is a stud! She was an All-American in college.
must be in the genes!@@allie_ostrander
Allie, way to crush it at Mammoth Lakes! You really put in a hard push to try and close the gap to Elise! Was so excited to see you come across the finish line!😊🤙🤙🤙
I wish I had known how close I was! When I saw the results, I was shocked!
Great job, Allie! I did the Dragon’s Back Ascent yesterday. And way to find the Latin Market which has great Mexican food. We went there on Saturday.
those burritos were great!
Great race and great to see Taylor do so well, too. Good luck with training and racing.
It was amazing to have Taylor there!
Brilliant effort Allie and sister !
Great job Allie!! Your learning and improving with each race! It’s so exiting to see your journey. Thanks for bringing us along!
thanks for coming along!

Thanks 4 the 💓. Back at ya.
Yayyyy Allie! We love you and support you!
Well done, Allie. Also well done to Taylor. 26k is a tough distance. I would never do anything over 409 meters.
Top 10 at a Golden Trail Series is awesome! Well done!! What’s next?
you make trail running look so fun i just want to move to colorado, train at elevation, and rip some awesome races
Hell yes, Allie. So much potential!!!
woohoo!
Burrito channel with some running. Love it.
Burrito is my middle name ;)
Yay, so glad you had a good race. :) Yep it's like each race you learn something... or something never to do again haha!
hahaha I have definitely learned some things to never do again!
Great to see you pick it up and do well - what’s next?
I'll announce my next race soon!
Just the path not having snow would have made this race better than the last. Could be the answer is Taylor needs to run every race you enter. 🤷🏻♂️ Well done!
I told her that was the answer! we're definitely going to try to make sisters' race weekends a more common occurrence!

Looks like such a fun race
It was fun! The climb was brutal, but the descent was long!
That sounds like a beast of a course
Fantastic! What a tough course. Congrats!
Legendary as always
Nicely done, Allie 😊
great racing! Top 10! So tough!
Thank you!!
YAY allie!! way to cruise!!
Looking good Allie!
Did not expect to see the STAIRS?!! Was that super difficult ?
Awesome work allie ❤
I'm getting "Ultra Barbie" vibes off that bib. Amazing result even with the lost time from the rolled ankles & wrong turns. You gotta feel proud... but knowing Ari, he's probably grinning even more. LOL! Congrats. P.S. - why does your sister HATE being on camera so much? Did you torture her with the camera as a kid?
You're totally spot on with the bib! And Taylor doesn't actually hate the camera that much, she just likes to play it up haha
Logged so many joyful miles in Mammoth. Yay homie.
Yay!!
Keep your chin up regarding Pikes Peak. That race humbles everyone no matter what your talent level
Pikes Peak definitely got the best of me, but I'll be back!
Amazing job to you and your sister you guys killed it!!! I am so glad that you had a much better race this time and glad that you overall felt better :) The trail looked so hard but congrats to both of you for finishing!! It's something to be very proud of I am so happy for you and keep improving and doing what your doing you're awesome!!! Were you sore after this race?
thank you!! And yes, I am still very sore!
your very welcome :) Oh I bet take some much needed recovery :) @@allie_ostrander
I think I saw your gel on the trail. Considered grabbing it but was too tired 😂
hahah I hope that someone put it to use!
Great job! Heading to the final event in Italy or are you gonna finish the season closer to home?
I reckon you can make the overall top 20 with a good showing there, I think it gives 50% more points than the 6 previous races.
I'm not sure about Italy yet!
Awesome Job!
Blimey, another one!!
Great run!🎉❤
Thanks! 😊
Good job allie❤
Way to go Allie! I thought you were a little nuts for doing this race 6 days after your last but considering you were feeling low about it maybe only having to sit with the results for a short time was good. (Although I still think you did amazing at Pikes Peak)
As someone who rolls my ankles regularly walking on flat I’m always dumbfounded how people manage to run on uneven terrain without doing the same. It’s good to know you’re human too 😉
I didn’t mean that to sound like I’m rejoicing over you rolling your ankles 🤔 Anyway, hopefully you get what I’m saying.
I’m glad you enjoyed this race more than the last, good luck with your training! 💜💜
haha I totally get what you are saying! I'm for sure not completely accustomed to this terrain, so I've gotta work on strengthening those ankles until they're made of steel lol
What an EXCELLENT "palate cleanser" after last week! Reflect, recover, rinse and repeat! :: high five :: for you both ;)
the palate needed cleansing! lol
Awesome vid!
congrats on a well earned result youre happier with. hoping there was no nandrolone in your burrito in that hole in the wall!
Yes! He was actually in Pikes Peak and this race. Unfortunately, he got way off course during Mammoth, so he didn't finish.
Yay! Stoke is back Allie 😃
The Return of The Stoke
Top ten is great in the Golden Trail series!!
Can't wait to keep working my way up!
Jeez! 26k stated, 27.5 actual. They're called bonus miles and you don't have to pay extra for them. :) Great race.
haha the race website showed that it would be 17.2 miles on the map, but they were advertising it as a 26k? So funny! Trail running is a whole different world...
Could you do a hair tutorial for how you do your race hair?!
I guess I could haha! I never thought of myself as much of a hair person, but I could show how to do it.
I love this
Allie, such an awesome race video! So cool you did it with your sister 😁! Great results by both of you! Did you say you were almost deceased on the ascent? 😅 Not sure why you keep trying to punish yourself so much 😜. You are making incredible progress, keep on keeping on. 🐐
haha yes that climb was a killer! Hence my feeling of being deceased lol
Champion
Its fun when one can truely enjoy the suck !!!
Your really statring to be a mountain runner great job!!
Thanks!
Great Job!!!
Who/how was the filming done?
Allie, I tried LMNT based on your recommendation. Salt makes my world go round' but I just couldn't hang with how salty it was. It's like drinking sea water. How do you tolerate it? Any suggestions?
I always use half a packet in 16oz of water. If that's still too salty, I would recommend diluting it ever more until the taste suits your preferences.
28K at altitude and up hill is more like 30 miles. Hopefully have two days rest before this one?
2 days rest minimum haha
Two races in two weeks.
Go get them!!!!
Yep! Nice to get some good work in!
Epic ❤😎
So next year The Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc?
might be a little soon for that haha!
nah thats crazy u happened to watch at the moment she says if i can make it to the top ten so can you and then u get top ten, thats some all lowercase allie bib ENERGY
its funny how both u and ari did races on back to back weekends recently w the first one being rly tough but then bouncing back and the second one looking so so good, super happy for you!!
also good to see the post race burrito, even tho it shoulda been free at the finish line, tsk tsk cmon race organizers 😒😒😒
the cuteness of the bib really carried me through ;)
also, I'm v disappointed that neither of my last two races have provided free burritos :( they had free pizza, but it's simply not the same..
Wow!!!
You look pretty running in the forest 😍
