15 Seconds of Glory

8 July, 2009 por Alexandra Browning

Today began the actual running of the bulls – the encierros. After camping out at a spot just above where the bulls are released for an hour and a half, the first rocket went off at 8 a.m. sharp to signal the near three thousand runners that the bulls were released, and after a brief fifteen seconds of them passing by where I stood, the second rocket went off to signal that all the bulls were out of the corral. Reports say only four runners were minorly injured, and so begins the running of the bulls!
