In the heart of Staffordshire, anticipation is building as the Stafford Half Marathon prepares to celebrate its momentous 40th anniversary. For the very first time, W R Davies Citroen joins the festivities, injecting a burst of energy and innovation into this beloved community event. While this marks our debut in supporting the marathon, our Sales Manager, Brad Trowman, knows the thrill of the race firsthand, having participated in years past.
Organised by Freedom Leisure and Stafford Borough Council, the Stafford Half Marathon has long been a highlight on the local calendar, drawing participants and spectators alike to Victoria Park, where the race village buzzes with anticipation and camaraderie.
As Laura Morris, Race Director at Freedom Leisure, and her team work tirelessly to ensure a flawless race day experience, W R Davies Citroen stands proudly by their side, committed to making memories and fostering community spirit in the heart of Stafford.
As the countdown to race day begins, W R Davies Citroen is proud to introduce the electric-powered Citroen AMI and AMI Buggy to the Stafford community. These eco-friendly vehicles will play multiple roles on the day: two will serve as the mobile start line, ensuring runners kick off their journey in style, while another two will cheer on participants along the route, spreading encouragement and enthusiasm. Additionally, two AMIs will be proudly displayed in the vibrant race village, showcasing Citroen's commitment to innovation and sustainability.
Behind this exciting initiative is Craig Norton, General Manager at W R Davies Citroen, who was determined to infuse the 40th Anniversary marathon with an extra dose of fun. With his vision, six AMI vehicles were sourced, transforming the event into a celebration of both fitness and eco-consciousness. As one of the few AMI retailers in the UK, W R Davies Citroen is thrilled to champion this revolutionary mode of urban mobility, paving the way for a greener future.
As runners and spectators converge on Victoria Park, they'll be greeted by the dynamic presence of W R Davies Citroen, where the AMI vehicles stand as symbols of progress and possibility. Whether you're lining up at the start, navigating the course, or simply soaking in the atmosphere, we invite you to join us in making history at the 40th anniversary of the Stafford Half Marathon.
Stay tuned for updates and highlights from the event, as we come together to make this year's Stafford Half Marathon the best one yet!
