Local Marathon Man
Christian Varley MBE
We are proud to introduce Ex professional cyclist and Former Iron Man competitor, turned Long Distance Runner and Running Coach, Christian Varley as our latest Brand Ambassador. Christian was already a very well known sportsman, but throughout 2019 he became somewhat of a local hero.
Throughout May 2019, Christian somehow completed 19 marathons in 19 days, raising over £100,000.00 for the Manx Solidarity Fund, which was set up to help people in the Isle of Man who've been affected financially by the coronavirus pandemic.
Christian has now focused his efforts to helping others, by forming his own coaching company that specialises in helping local runners of all abilities.
We are proud to introduce Christian as a Brand Ambassador, and look forward to supporting him throughout his future endeavours.

"Rex have been a great help to me and my family since I completed my Marathon challenge in 2019. I am grateful for Ian's help, and I think it's fantastic that a local company do so much for local athletes like myself, Alan and Will. "

Will Draper
The former cyclist-turned-triathlete is beginning to make a name of himself in the world of Ironman & triathlons, and competed in Guernsey at the Olympic Distance Rocquaine Triathlon, winning by a comfortable eight minutes.
Will has big plans over the coming years, including various Ironman events and next year’s Island Games, and recently received his Ironman Pro Card during 2021.
We are delighted and honoured to be supporting Will, and we are excited to be a part of his journey.
WORDS ON REX:
"I am very proud to be a Rex Ambassador. What I like about Rex and the main reason I was more than willing to be a brand ambassador, is the fact that Rex is an exciting and growing local business, and one that continues to invest back into the Manx community wherever possible."

Distance runner
Alan Corlett
Alan has been crushing it on the road, on the track, and throughout the cross-country season locally and further afield for many years. He is an inspiration to many local aspiring runners, and we thought it was about time he was rewarded and supported for his commitment to local athletics.
Aside from local races, Alan has big plans going forward, and we are thrilled to be a part of his journey and look forward to supporting him all the way.
WORDS ON REX:
"Made up with such a supportive backing with Rex Motors."
