although the most famous running of the bulls is that of san fermín, they are held in towns and villages across spain, portugal, and in some cities in southern france during the summer. examples are the bull run of san sebastián de los reyes, near madrid, at the end of august which is the most popular of spain after pamplona, the bull run of cuéllar, considered as the oldest of spain since there are documents of its existence dating back to 1215, the highland capeias of the raia in sabugal, portugal, with horses leading the herd crossing old border passes out of spain and using the medieval 'forcåo', or the bull run of navalcarnero held at night.

in 1973, joseph miller, jr., a retired portland physician, sued the forest service, claiming that its logging violated the bull run trespass act. in 1976, u.s. district judge james m. burns agreed, and logging was halted. shortly thereafter, congress rescinded the bull run trespass act and replaced it with the bull run watershed management act of 1977, which created the bull run watershed management unit (brwmu) (replacing the bull run reserve) and legalized further bull run logging unless it could be shown to reduce water quality. logging and the debate about logging continued. in 1994 about 75 percent of the brwmu was made into a reserve for protecting the northern spotted owl and other species dependent on old-growth forests. in february 1996, runoff from unusually heavy rains in the watershed washed so much eroded soil into the bull run storage reservoirs that the city had to shut down the bull run supply and switch during the crisis to its emergency supply from a well field along the columbia river. later in 1996, congress passed the oregon resources conservation act, which prohibited logging on all forest service lands within the bull run water supply drainage and another of land that drained to the lower bull run river. in 2001, the little sandy act extended the prohibitions to the entire brwmu and public lands along the little sandy river.
