where does the running of the bulls end?
the bullring
the event begins at 8 am when a first firecracker is lit to announce the release of the bulls from their corral. before the year 1924 it started at 6 and at 7 between 1924 and 1974. runners gather earlier at the beginning of the itinerary to ask for the protection of the saint by singing a chant three times before a small statue of san fermín which has been placed in a raised niche in a wall: “"a san fermín pedimos, por ser nuestro patrón, nos guíe en el encierro, dándonos su bendición"”. (which means “"to san fermin we ask to be our patron saint and to guide us in the running of the bulls, giving to us his blessing"”.) a second cracker signals that the last bull has left the corral. there are six fighting bulls accompanied by six oxen (often white and brown coloured) that guide them to the "plaza" and followed by three more not fighting oxen. there are also some shepherds guiding the bulls, wearing green t-shirts and holding long poles. once all of the bulls have entered the arena, a third rocket is released while a fourth firecracker indicates that the bulls are in their bullpens and the run has concluded. after the end of the run young cows with wrapped horns are released in the bullring and toss the participants, to the amusement of the crowd.
