There was a slightly different look to the Pamplona Bull Run this, Monday, morning, as many of the runners, no doubt up all night, continued to wear the red Spanish strip of ‘La Roja’ the victorious football team. The colour red replacing the traditional red and white of San Fermin.

The bulls came from the Victoriano del Río Stud, which was at the event for the first time, and offered a very fast run, covering the 800m in 120 seconds.

Several runners fell as the bulls entered the bullring at the end of the run but there was no goring, and just a few people taken to hospital with bruises.
