Cane Bay Partners is proud to put its support behind team members Colleen Chin, Esther Ellis, Robin Seila and Julie Sommer, and to be part of such a challenging and uplifting event on the island of St. Croix.
“We are all excited to participate in what is one of the most challenging ultra-running events in the circuit. The hills and the heat in St. Croix make for a brutal run, but the scenery and the sense of accomplishment are unbeatable,” Cane Bay VI team member Julie Sommer said. “We hope to inspire other runners to take on the challenge, and are ourselves inspired by the amazing runners doing the entire event. Bridget and Mike Klein, this year’s race directors and the current record holders for the course, are unbelievable athletes!”
The course goes from Christiansted to Frederiksted and back east to finish up on Mermaid Beach at The Buccaneer Hotel. The Scenic 50 includes an individual 50-mile run, a four leg 50-mile team relay and an individual 50-kilometer run. Registration will take place between 10 and 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, Jan. 23.
