António Pinto - São silvestre Amadora 2025.

The Celestial Dragon represents strength, speed, power, fluidity, and elevation, qualities that are essential in athletics. Like the dragon, the athlete seeks to surpass limits, master their body, and reach new heights. The concept of “celestial” refers to the sky, symbolizing ambition, self-improvement, and the constant pursuit of going further, the relentless search for better performances.

The brand Claw, with its spirit of never giving up, represents strength, determination, the ability to fight until the very end, and the resilience required in competition. In athletics, talent alone is not enough: discipline, focus, and a spirit of sacrifice are fundamental.

My idea behind creating this equipment is not merely aesthetic, it communicates a symbolic attitude. It is designed to be worn in training sessions, interval workouts, and above all, in competition.

Celestial Dragon

Soryu

Wearing the Ekiden Soryu kit at the 50th edition of the São Silvestre da Amadora carries an even deeper meaning. This race is widely recognized for its demanding nature, marked by challenging climbs, an intense pace, and high-level competitiveness.

On this 10K course, where endurance is constantly tested, the symbolism of the Celestial Dragon becomes especially powerful. Like the dragon rising through the skies with strength and control, the athlete confronts each climb with determination, inner strength, and the ability to push beyond limits.

The hills of Amadora demand both physical and mental grit. Every uphill kilometer conquered represents discipline, focus, and resilience. The kit, with its symbolic identity, reinforces this competitive mindset, it is not merely technical apparel, but an emblem of courage and ambition.

Running the São Silvestre da Amadora wearing this kit was, for me, an acceptance of the challenge with a combative spirit, transforming the strain of the climbs into a statement of strength, balance, and self-overcoming.
