"The St. Croix Coral Reef Open Water Swim was one of the most fantastic experiences of my life. Not only was it the most pristine water I have ever swam in, but it was also the most organized of any open water race I have been in. I have already made plans to attend in 2008 and being post-Beijing it should be THE place to be in October!”
Rowdy Gaines, Olympic Gold Medalist

St Croix Half-Ironman Triathlon

The St. Croix Ironman 70.3 Triathlon is one of the premier destination triathlons in the World! It combines the beauty of the largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands with the challenge of an unforgettable course. The crowning feature of this race is the legendary climb on the bike course which is appropriately named 'The Beast'. Once you've conquered The Beast, you'll never look at a hill the same way.

In 2008, we will once again be holding a sprint triathlon in conjunction with our long course race. The sprint is appropriately dubbed "Beauty Without the Beast" as the bike course bypasses the famous hill climb.

The Half-Ironman website is: http://stcroixtriathlon.com/.
