‘Happy Nationale-Nederlanden San Silvestre Vallecana’, slogan with a blue jersey for the Madrid race

MADRID, 18 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Nationale-Nederlanden San Silvestre Vallecana presented this Thursday its shirt for the 2022 edition, blue in color and with the slogan ‘Happy Nationale-Nederlanden San Silvestre Vallecana’ that 40,000 runners will wear on December 31.

The shirt, which this year will be blue, has been presented in a gymkhana through the streets of Madrid in which some 100 people participated. The objective was to be the first to know the design and color of the jersey for the 2022 edition of the Nationale-Nederlanden San Silvestre Vallecana.

The participants, summoned through the race’s social networks, were summoned at 7:00 p.m. at the Rafaelhoteles Atocha hotel, from where they received the first clue as to where they should go.

After the countdown, the runners began a race of about 6 kilometers that took them to different points such as the Nationale-Nederlanden office on the Ronda de Valencia, the Retiro Park, the Moyano slope, the Puerta de Alcalá or the street Highlander.

At each of these points, each participant had to perform a skill test and, once achieved, received the clue to the next point until finally meeting the goal, located on this occasion in the Plaza de Colón, on the corner between the streets Goya and Serrano.

The fastest boy and girl, Diego Serrano and María Illescas, were in charge of pressing a button that made the shirt appear on a giant screen. Diego and María received the shirt, with this year’s spectacular design, with the number 00001 as a prize.

This is the fourth time that this initiative has been organized to discover the color of the Nationale-Nederlanden San Silvestre Vallecana shirt. The last time it was done was in 2019, when the design was discovered on the façade of the Prado Museum.

Registration for the Vallecana is still open, both for the popular race and for the international race through the website www.sansilvestrevallecana.com.
