a lagging bull that has resisted entering the pigsties has made the second running of the bulls of the Sanfermines, with horns of Ymbro Fountain, has been extended to 3:10 minutes after a race that until then had been fast and exciting.
After the traditional chants to San Fermín and the launch of the rocket at eight in the morning, the herd has left the corrals of the slope of Santo Domingo sheltered and led by the halters at a short distance from the horns and they have done so for a large part of this section.
The first contact with the runners has been clean, although the speed of the group has caused some falls to be registered already in these first meters, without this slowing down the race.
In this way they have reached town hall square, where a bull has been placed in the lead avoiding several young men who fell on the right bank and thus they have crossed this section at great speed as well as Mercaderes street.
Arriving at the curve with the Post office a runner has fallen in front of the herd, which has passed over but without entertaining him, approaching the left side that the torada has swept for a few meters with several young men fallen on the road, where one of the animals has separated to make the rest of the journey at a distance from his brothers.
The herd stretched out on Calle Estafeta, leaving gaps to show off before the powerful antlers of the Fuente Ymbro and, separated into three groups, headed towards the Telefónica section, where there were moments of tension along the fence, one of the areas in which several runners have been injured.
The entry into the arena of the most of the torada has occurred without noteworthy incidents, although with some falls inside the alley, and it has been the bull that had been left behind that has become the protagonist by refusing to enter the pigsties, which has forced intervene the doublers.
