Welcome to St. Croix Scenic 50!

Schedule / Location

Weather

January weather in St. Croix consistently has highs around 82 - 86 ℉ during the day and humid. Lows are around 76 - 80 ℉ overnight.

While we often enjoy pleasant breezes during the winter months the temperature and humidity still result in a lot of sweat left out on the course. It is highly encouraged that all 50K runners wear a hydration vest or carry a handle held water bottle with at least 20oz capacity to be refilled as needed at each aid station.

Sunrise is around 6:50AM. It is recommended that 50 KM and 50 KM relay leg 1 runners wear a head lamp or carry a flashlight prior to enjoying the beautiful sunrise en route. Unwanted headlamps can be left at Aid station 1 and retrieved at the finish.
