Evan Jurkovich
Personal Bests
After taking first place in the city elementary mile race in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade, Evan Jurkovich was coaxed into running cross country and track starting in 7th grade. Growing up in Minnesota, hockey was Evan’s first love but running slowly started taking over. Upon completion of a high school career of cross country, hockey, and track, Evan attended Drake University where he ran all four years. In Evan's first race in a GRC singlet, he ran a marathon PR of 2:30:42, the 5th fastest time in GRC history. Evan works on Capitol Hill for the House Agriculture Committee and is enjoying still being able to run competitively while it lasts.
