Katie Storrs

Katie Storrs has played soccer all her life but did not run her first 5k until 2000. She’s run off and on over the past 10 years (running 5k’s up through half marathons). Katie started running consistently again in October 2008 when she joined the Arlington AM Fun Runs. And after a hard campaign, Katie began serious training with the B&RB (Alexandria Pacers) all-women’s running group under the Pacers training umbrella. In 2009, Katie completed the Marine Corps Marathon (her first) achieving her goal time! She loves racing but enjoys training as much or more than the actual races. She is also the Thursday AM Fun Run leader leaving from Greenberry in Arlington.

Katie is an accountant living in Arlington, VA. She’s lived in the DC area for about 6 years.
