Seventh EncierroUpdated event: 13/7/2009 a las 08:29 horas
Today's Fuente Ymbro bulls completed the run through Pamplona's cobblestone streets in a quick 2 minutes and
23 seconds. The group of animals was divided on Estafeta street, however no serious injuries resulted.
This clean and fast run featured bulls from the ranch "Fuente Ymbro." The bulls reached the bull ring corral at the end of the run in
just two minutes and twenty seconds. Near the beginning of the of the bulls in the lead created moments of danger in the Plaza del
Ayuntamiento, where he hit a runner who was waiting near the fence. On Estafeta street one of the bulls slipped, dividing the group, however in the end it was a beautiful run with fewer runners than previous days.
Compared to the long run and the large weekend crowds yesterday, today's run was strikingly different.
At 8:00 am, the herd left the Santo Domingo corrals led by the steers and met the runners halfway up the beginning slope.
After the Mercaderes stretch, the bulls were spaced well and provided plenty of room for young men to run with the fast bulls. However, on a Estafeta a runner fell and was trampled by a couple of the animals and people, however no serious injuries resulted.
The first four bulls came together in the Plaza de Toros and the pastores guided them to the corral. Seconds later the two behind joined the others in the corral and the last rocket signaled the end of today's run.
