Quick facts Full name, Founded ...

Having been the most represented club in the Olympic Games, this section of the sports club, headed many decades by athletics coach Mário Moniz Pereira (1921–2016), is one of the most decorated Portuguese athletics teams and is responsible for much of the titles won by the sports club throughout its history. Sporting Portugal's athletics department long-distance runner Carlos Lopes won the marathon at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles for Portugal, becoming Portugal's first Olympic gold medalist ever.[4] In the 1976 Summer Olympics, he had already won the first Olympic silver medal in the history of Portuguese sports, competing in the men's 10,000 metres.[5]

The annual Sporting running race, established in 2011, is organized by the club[6][7][8] as well as the international athletics meeting Meeting de Atletismo Professor Moniz Pereira.[9]
