Thank you for the transparency! I feel like some people think that being a content creator automatically makes you rich, because they don't really understand how it all of it works. Keep up the great work!

Your quest for a medal in Los Angeles will break all records. Can't wait to see it.

Have seen so many titles like this and they never actually give an amount. Thanks Allie.

Oh my gosh thank you for the transparency! You say a few times, "I know it doesn'tsound like much", but it really, really is GREAT for a smaller channel. You earned like 60-70% of a median salary job by just showing training, races, and talking about your experiences. It is kind to share this, and I am sure a lot of work, but given that there is so much training and racing anyway, you are wise to have found a way to earn this much money with it.

Perhaps this was your biggest year on YouTube largely due to the hype of the Olympic Trials and your consistency in health, improvement and race results across cross-country, track, trail and road. But just as your fitness and athletic performance has improved, so has your storytelling. I stuck with your channel through the years of you, Spence and Georgie in Seattle with all the procrastinating and whining during the track warmups before starting the first rep. But the payoff was definitely this year with the drama of your achievements and the next-level story-telling through film editing and narration. I especially loved, along with your steeple races, the tribute to Coach David Roche at the Leadville 100. I think you have a bright future in creative arts as well as running. Best wishes and Happy New Year.

I have grand-kids older than you. But I really appreciate your videos. I thank you for being a perfect example of what can be achieved through hard work, dedication, and more hard work!!

Wonderful video, Allie! Best wishes for 2025. 🎉 Would love to see a sit down with you and David about the year ahead, how training will stay the same, how it will be different and areas he sees as potential to get better in.

One of the things that I enjoyed about your 2024 was that you had a goal that was recognizable (Olympic Trials) by a lot of people. As such the build up to it kept many people engaged. In 2025 if you can identify a couple of big name goals to have similar build ups to that would probably assist in the overall engagement. Maybe the build up does not need to be a competition, but maybe trying to hit a specific time. Just my thoughts.

Of course if you could go back and do Mt. Marathon that would be a great build up type of event. But I hear that is not on your radar, but heck I'll ask .

You’re great Allie! Glad you’re seeing the rewards for your efforts (and also glad you have outside sponsors to make it a liveable salary!) You and Phily are my fav YouTube runners and I think the authenticity is 100% why. Hugs! ❤

Amazingly kind to be this transparent. Kudos and good luck on your season!

[kathrynchamberlin]

Okay, so you’re not a huge commercially successful production company! But your fans love your videos and all the heart you put into them. Glad you keep them coming. Your shorts are terrific and usually have a lot of humor in them.

[hyperzzzzz]

We'd like to echo a sentiment expressed elsewhere: we subscribe to few channels and you're on that list because you're authentic, a rare quality in YT. We really hope you try for LA2028, and we're in this for the long haul, but the most important point on that is you decide what's best for you.

[taylavannelli]

I really like how you break things down. Answers so many questions people have for non-televised athletes!

[ingeborgomahony]

I think you are so successful because you show love for your sport as well as the highs and lows. I completely look forward to see what you are going to do in 2025 and hope to see you reach 100K subscribers. You are one of the channels I really enjoy coming back to on the daily, so thank you for all that you do!

[jofusako]

My favorite Allie Ostrander videos this year. 1) Reacting to my old what I eat in a day: I think about this when ever some one posts a "eat in a day" video. 2) I won a pro track race...: I was so happy for you, thanks for sharing the joy. 3) Leadville 100 ultramarathon and David Roche...: Excellent story telling,

[KarLKoX]

As a running coach here in France, your videos are a great inspiration to me as I continue to motivate my athletes. 🙏

[zixaz]

Seeing all this data made me not get annoyed at the ad mid-video since I knew what you were getting for it! Thanks for the transparency, this was really cool to see. May your 2025 be even better! 🎉

[NathanJamesLarsen]

Well done and a great example how YouTubers like us need to rely on other income streams whether it be brand deals or products we make. I personally do a combo of a lot cause diversity is the best security.

Well done!! Keep it up!

[elizabethdinovis]

Wishing you a happy, healthy and joy-filled 2025! Since you can wear whatever shoes you want to race under your new sponsorship, it would be interesting to hear how you make your selections! And of course more Georgie content 😁

[edwin]

You deserve all the success you have. Congrats on a good 2024. Here's to a great 2025
