I Raced The US Olympic Trials || 3000m Steeplechase 2024

Beyond proud of you 👏 Excited about your future. Keep it up

One thing for certain superstar, you are amazing and you did not fail🤩😍

Congratulations on your finish and an outstanding personal best!! 💪❤️

LOVE YOU ALLIE! 🎉

I'm now convinced that the 3000 meter steeplechase has to be one of the hardest track and field events. Running around for 7.5 laps at a sub 5 minute pace, jumping obstacles and a water pit can't be easy. The fact that you were there competing is something to be proud of.

Way to compete and take some skins late in the race! It just hit me that your celebrity doppelganger is Sandra Dee in the 1960s. :D

Allie, thanks for sharing your journey, your attitude and dedication are inspirational !

It’s a whole different experience watching the trials when you know someone competing. Very cool and congrats

Great run to stay in the race when would have been easy to ease up. I always struggle in a race where I know I won’t get the result I wanted and you should be proud that you ran faster than you have ever run. Keep going, next time and how special it will be when you finally get it!!!! 😊

So proud of you Allie! 20th fastest in the world is insane!!
What a race!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us, I love getting to see more of how a high level athlete trains for these events 🤍🫶🏻
Congratulations! 💖

💪🏃‍♀️

Take a little breather. Run for fun for a bit. No small accomplishment. So many runners who are going to Paris have come up short like this before, but have come back stronger. Coming back is so much harder than starting out on top and staying there. like she was in college and right after. It all depends on what's most important to you. Allie has been there before. Once again. Great coaching. Great running.

you. are. a. rockstar. You WERE close to being a olympian, and we all know you can do it!!

Not a fail! You were fantastic

I'm sobbing. You should be SO proud, my goodness. 20th fastest in the world!!!!!!!!

Keep running, don't stop. 2028 is yours and all the remarkable adventures in between are just the beginning 💛

Be honest do you girls not take any PEDs? I bet these top girls are on it.

So proud of you! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I'm a high school runner and I struggle with my eating patterns. Your words help me and you inspire me so much! I love you and I'm very very proud of you!!!! 🎉❤❤❤

This was just so inspiring! Also couldn't help but wonder is running in those little bikinis and bras uncomfortable?! I could never be comfy running in that.

I've loved the journey, Allie. You did amazing in the race. Can't wait to see what's next! =D

Just for context, for anyone who (like me) didn't realise just how fast this race was, the woman who placed 7th at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics 3000m steeplechase was SLOWER than Allie ran in this Olympic trial. Absolutely insanely impressive performance and what a tough race. Well done <3

20 th fastest woman in the world!! Wooow, congrats, you are amazing!!

She was Milrose 3000m champion 4 years ago I saw that race

You are incredible!

your parents are adorable 🥰

Way to go Allie!!!!!

7th though and a PR!

Great job!!

The pre-race experts didn't have you even top 10, so 7th is a successful race.

Congratulations to everyone who puts in the work and sees something through.

I'm looking forward to the continuing adventures of Allie O.

Only Seconds away from being an Olympian is definitely NOT far away 😃

i am sorry it did not work out. It's not a failure, it's just a "NOT YET" 😗

Thanks for this inspiration.

I watched some of your races to hype myself up for prelims in my state. Thank you for the inspiration. Continue to believe!!

The matter what is next, I believe we still need to have a conversation about your training and your thought processes. Believe it or not you can do far better end quite quickly. Yet, if the racing at this level is over, there is much to be learned and had from this experience. I would love to share this with you but if that's not possible I can live with it. I do think you are a very special young woman.

You still rocked it!!!

Is dragonfly best for steple?

Allie you are a Star Gal. Steeple chase a very difficult challenge and met that challenge.

Also running myself, but at a level which doesn't even compare to the top athletes, and I'll never even be close to winning.
But it's always fun look up which position I ended and to compare it to how many runners finished the race. If you then see you're still at the fast 25% of runners in those races (nearing 40 very fast), that still makes me proud somehow. So having the 20th time in the world is simply amazing from my perspective (although I understand going the the Olympics would be an unforgettable experience).
And as in your videos: having fun is also very important! 10 years ago I strived for the fastest times possible, but my body doesn't allow me do that anymore. Since I agreed upon myself that running a few minutes slower, but having fun during the races, I found a new motivation somehow the last 2 years.

You should be so proud Allie! You have probably made more of a positive impact on the running world than all 3 top placers ❤

P.S. super random but do you use intra workout fuel during your long elliptical sessions and at what time do you start to use it if you do?

Super random but where is your backpack from? It’s super cute!

Amazing run!
