The St. Croix Half
Ironman Triathlon is held at one of the most famous venues in the sport. The
race annually features the finest array of professional athletes in the world,
who challenge not only each other, but one of the most notorious climb the sport
has to offer: THE BEAST. St. Croix is pleased to host an event where potential
Ironman competitors can qualify early in the season, and not have to go the full
Ironman distance in order to do so.
