Running of the Bulls

“There are 2000 or 3000 people running in Pamplona,” says veteran runner Carlos Gil, “but most of them never see the bulls. Some of the newcomers run so fast and so far ahead that they arrive at the bullring before the bulls have even started the itinerary.” Although the legendary annual run only lasts for three or four minutes each morning, it is by far the most famous part of the Festival of San Fermin (in Navarre, Spain), which takes place from July 6 to July 14 every year.
