Running+of+the+Bulls7

In San Fermin, Running of the bulls:
The Running of the bulls is from July 7th to July 14th and it was originally in San Fermin. It is mostly men who are the ones who run from the bulls. The bull runners are trying to get the bulls to chase them down the street and then run into the ring.The crowd wants to get close, so that they can see what's going on, but they don’t want to get hurt by horns and the two rockets that signal the starting of the tradition. The men who offer to run from the bulls run for a half a mile. Only the braves men offer to run from the bulls. When the bulls are far away, everyone runs really slow. When they are closer to the men, they run for their lives. Later, after the running of the bulls, the bulls are put into pens to later be killed in a bullfight.

==== It is said the tradition started in1591 when bullfighters were trying to lead the bulls into the ring. They later started running and chasing the bulls down the street. As it became more popular, people started joining in and having the bulls chase them down the street. Only very daring and brave people ever run with the bulls. You can find a bull running festival all around Spain now, some taking place during different times of the year. ====
