Allie O Dumped by NNormal

Her form is atrocious. There's a reason she's only run a 4:35 mile.

What’s your mile time, hot shot?

One of her insta stories is excitement (heart eyes emoji) over new colors of the NNormal Kjerag shoe.

I can't for the life of me understand why they signed her in the first place. She was never a trail runner, and pretty much every single piece of content she's produced over the past few years has been about how she feels sad sometimes or just a poop joke.
Not exactly the kind of stuff you'd want to align your premium brand with. To cap it off, the news broke about her USADA ban during their period sponsoring her.

Complete basketcase - Her and TAS are absolutely perfect for eachother.

Under 4:00. So even when you adjust for gender mine was better

Why is she unattached and wearing Brooks and Nike in her YouTube video? If she's not dropped, she should be, they signed her because she has social media reach and if she's not even wearing their clothing in her vids what is the point?

I believe she ran mount marathon in highschool and won it in 2017. So she trained on trails just never in a competitive sense until last year.

She was a junior world mountain running champion.

This is my feeling as well. I don't believe she's cut ties with Nnormal, but she's not a very good brand ambassador for them. It looked like she was wearing their shoes for the warmup but it takes a keen eye to notice.

She's in NIKE in that video, bro.

can you guys go and like serve your country, start a band, or read a book with all the free time you have to scrutinize a struggling woman trying to make the most with the cards she's been dealt by the running industrial complex?

stop engaging with her. let her make her youtube videos. get help.

I definitely meant to have a "?" at the end of that title but oh well. As for what she is wearing, she does have a Nnormal sweatshirt on at the table, but that's not the point, she wore brooks after being dumped by Brooks too, she only has so much clothing on her income. What she DOES NOT do is wear the clothing when she is training, (all the times) which as a performance brand, one would thing should be contracted to do. I have NEVER seen a professional athlete sponsored by a performance clothing brand wear anything other than that brand while training. Sure they wear other stuff casually, but if you are making a running video, and your sponsor is Nnormal, you should wear the clothing. The shoes are not a big deal because she already explained that and they clearly don't make a track shoe, but sporting a huge Brooks logo and Nike leggings is bad form 100%.

She attracts a skeevier brand of lonely old man on this site than Tuohy or Valby. Probably because she looks age 12 and has a teen's sense of humor. Not trolling, just pointing out a fact.

When someone screams "look at me, look at me" and relies on you looking at them for their income, that person cannot then be surprised when conclusions are drawn, criticisms are made and opinions are discussed or formed about them. NNormal wants us to buy their stuff because Allie O wears it. She has to wear it for that to happen.

She's said in her videos that she'll wear other shoes for road or track stuff bc NNormal doesn't make a super shoe. Not sure why she's unattached for a meet though-maybe because NNormal doesn't have a USATF track team?

A struggling woman? This is a woman who has never worked a real job in her entire life. She's been coasting by making the same videos of the same workouts for 5 years.
Not exactly the definition of struggling.

Probably just found out that NNormal is non-tendering for 2024 and her contract is being allowed to expire.

I already know that and addressed that, learn to read. I'm not talking about shoes.

There are so many people who are chronically online, and it's so clear that being online is terrible for them.

They are "mental health advocates". Ever notice that their mental health doesn't improve? It seems like the more online they are, the more lost and listless they become. Allie Ostrander is one example. Pappas is another.

Allie Ostrander was a really good runner. She was NXN champion and NCAA XC runner up. She qualified for a world steeple team in 2019.

I'm not saying that she has to be a runner or that mental issues were not already there, but has making all this content improved her mental well being at all? She seems to fall into the same traps and then after all that she served a doping ban.

So many people are "influencers". It seems like the easy thing to do, but have people who talk about ED recovery, actually made recovery when they talk about it? When people advocate for depression, have they healed? Are they really making this content to help others or are they making it to validate themselves?
