Summary

"That’s such a good question, and one that I absolutely refuse to answer!"

Welcome to Ask Ali, a twice-a-month series where I answer all of your questions. This time around, I’m flying through 39 listener questions, sent in via Instagram Stories (I’m @aliontherun1), about my upcoming race announcing plans, how I'm feeling about moving (again!), what's most fulfilling to me right now, my take on introspection and talking about my feelings, and so much more.

0:00.0	This episode of The Alley on the Run Show is brought to you by Gooter.
0:04.0	Go to Gooter.com slash on the run and use code on the run 15 to get 15% off your entire order.
0:17.2	Welcome to The Alley on the Run Show. I'm your host Allie Feller and this is Ask Allie
0:22.7	Solo Edition. I am here by myself today to answer a whole pile of questions submitted
0:29.2	over Instagram stories and these ones run the gamut at least I think they do.
0:34.4	I'm recording this intro before having read any of them so let's see what happens here today.
0:39.4	Let's see what's on your mind. Before we get into it though I want to shout out our Ask Allie
0:44.0	sponsor and that as always is Gooter. Gooter makes my favorite sunglasses and I'm extra excited
0:52.4	today because I just received my latest order yesterday so I've got six new styles to wear while
0:59.0	I'm walking, running, driving, hiking, lounging, lounging. No, just kidding. I am not doing much

1:43.8	called vegan friendly couture. These ones have big brunch with your girlfriends energy which I'm
1:49.1	all for. I got the future is void. These are the all black version of the VRGs and they feel
1:55.6	edgy to me and I don't know I should try to be more edgy. Less pink, more matte black or maybe,
2:01.6	maybe both. I got Nessie's Midnight orgy which is the OG style and they're sweet. They're this
2:07.6	pretty pastel blue and I predict my mom will steal these for me. I just hope she doesn't ask about
