Allie Ostrander is a rare distance gem found on the remote Kenai Peninsula of Alaska. A 3-time state cross country champion and 10:03 two-miler on the track, the small-framed Ostrander's mountainous rise has mystified and intrigued a nation. She has quickly ascended in the past 6 months to be considered one of the country's best high school runners and has earned a US #1 ranking this fall.
