With a new personal record, Alaska’s Allie Ostrander placed seventh overall in the women’s 3,000-meter steeplechase finals at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials on Thursday, a race in which the top three finishers qualify for the Olympic Games in Paris.

EUGENE, Oregon -

The Soldotna running sensation clocked in with a personal-best time of 9 minutes, 21.82 seconds, about 14 seconds off the top-three cutoff mark in a race featuring some of the best steeplechasers the United States has to offer. Starting in the inside lane, Ostrander kept pace with much of the 13-person field throughout the race but was unable to surge toward the front of the pack during the grueling obstacle race that features 28 fixed barriers and seven water jumps across three kilometers.The Kenai Central High School alum placed eighth in the event in 2021 and also made the 5,000-meter finals at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 2016.

Ostrander is a three-time NCAA Div.
