Also known as “The Beauty and The Beast”, St. Croix’ Ironman 70.3 hosts one of the easiest ocean swims and one of the toughest bikes and runs on the 70.3 circuit. The swim takes place in the protected Christiansted harbor where waters are normally calm. The bike takes cyclists halfway around scenic St. Croix including a 7/10 mile climb up the 15% average hill we affectionately call “The Beast”. The run is also amazingly scenic and well supported. There is also a Sprint distance race for those less ambitions triathletes and don’t forget the Paradise 5K on Thursday and the huge street party we call “Jump Up” on Friday!
