PAMPLONA, SPAIN, July 10, 2016: Participants run ahead of Pedraza de Yeltes' fighting bulls on the fourth day of the San Fermin bull run festival. On each day of the festival six bulls are released at 8:00 a.m. (0600 GMT) to run from their corral through the narrow, cobbled streets of the old town over an 850-meter (yard) course. Ahead of them are the runners, who try to stay close to the bulls without falling over or being gored.
