Health sources report four transfers to the University Hospital and one to the San Martín Center, all for bruises of varying severity.

And now, let's have breakfast and gather strength to continue the festivities. At 9:30 a.m., the Giants and Bigheads parade will take place, and at 10:45 a.m., the senior mass, among many other activities.

Health sources report five patients were treated and five were transferred to the University Hospital, all of whom suffered bruises.

With up to four bulls taking the lead in the race, many young men were surprised and fell to the ground, unable to keep up with the bulls' pace. Fortunately, the bulls' noble nature meant they weren't even looked at.

The herd has been very compact throughout, but at Estafeta, they made a significant push, and the bulls overtook the steers and led the running of the bulls. These very noble bulls put in some beautiful runs alongside the youngsters.

The Jandilla team has flown and has the best record of these Sanfermines with their 2 minutes 17 seconds.

The very fast running of the bulls: 2 minutes 17 seconds

There was a scuffle between several young men in the alley, but it remained a scare.

The first ones are already arriving at the square

The herd has split in two

There is a red that goes at a spectacular speed, the runners are enjoying some spectacular races

The herd is very compact and they don't look at the lads, they haven't even made a single defeat.

The exit was very fast and a bull is taking the lead of the herd.

They go at full speed and make room for themselves among the runners.

The herd leaves at full speed, very compact, and reaches the height of the young men.

The bulls leave and head up the Santo Domingo slope.

The sky above Pamplona is bursting into flames. The running of the bulls begins!

The third chant is here, so... everyone ready to run!

The traditional chant resonates loudly for the second time

"We ask San Fermín, as our patron saint, to guide us in the running of the bulls, giving us his blessing," the young men sing, newspaper in hand, addressing the saint.

The balconies are full of people who don't want to miss the Jandillas from that privileged position.

The waiters do their last stretches so their muscles don't fail in front of the Jandillas.

Traffic lights, ladders, and balancing acts: the audience's ingenuity is sharpened to watch the running of the bulls.

Borja Jiménez, the triumphant bullfighter in Madrid, arrives. He celebrated his hundredth bullfight in Europe yesterday upon his return to this arena. Last year, he paid for his glory with blood; this Thursday, the crowd didn't match his expectations, and he couldn't repeat his successes of the season. Reports Rosario Pérez

The first chant is heard at the Monumental. They pray to San Fermín, beacon and guide, for the young men who will run the Jandillas and Vegahermosas bull runs. Reported by Rosario Pérez

The municipal procession is about to finish the route to give the go-ahead for the Jandilla bull run to begin.

The festive atmosphere in the square contrasts with the worried and focused faces of many of the runners already at their daily stations, waiting for the rocket. Report: Ángel González Abad

After its traditional procession, the little saint has been placed in its niche to protect all the young men.

And with that noble image that extends from Tudela to Roncal, the jota makes us dream: "Don't leave Navarre." Reported by Rosario Pérez

And not with the broom, but with his presence. He checks doorways and gates, and leaves no one in the streets of the historic center. Only the young men participating in the bull run are allowed to remain at their starting points.

Today is dedicated to seniors with a program of events geared toward them.

After giving it their all while dancing the aserejé, the Red Cross members begin their procession down the alley to the rhythm of clapping. Reported by Rosario Pérez

The shepherds leave the Monumental and walk around to take their respective positions.

The tranquility emanating from the bulls in the Santo Domingo corrals contrasts with the nerves beginning to surface among the young men.

On this day in 2018, a very eventful running of the bulls took place, featuring the José Escolar bulls. In addition to the four gored and several injured, the running of the bull is remembered for a bull that broke away from the herd, turned and ran for several meters in the opposite direction, toward the Santo Domingo corrals, causing panic. Reported by Ángel González Abad

It's Friday, and it shows. Not only has the temperature risen on the thermometer, but also in the air. Finding a good spot near the fence to watch the running of the bulls is for early risers or those who are smart. Kimbabá makes its debut in the bullring, and the crowd is moving its hips. Reported by: Rosario Pérez

Music is the natural wake-up call for the people of Pamplona during San Fermín, and they're here like every morning.

Many people were in Pamplona's old town, especially young people carrying their newspapers to participate in the running of the bulls.

In 2024, the Jandillas bulls left one gored and two injured. The running of the bulls lasted 2'56".

It's been one hundred years since Nobel Prize winner Ernest Hemingway began compiling documentation on the San Fermin festival for his work "Fiesta." The writer and journalist had already visited Pamplona in 1923, returned the following year, and in 1925 began writing the book that marked a turning point for the festivals in the Navarrese capital. Hemingway continued visiting Spain until 1959, and he is credited with bringing worldwide recognition to the San Fermin festival, which was declared a Festival of International Interest.

The only runner who remains hospitalized is the waiter who suffered the goring, the rest were discharged.

The running of the bulls on July 11, 2004, was particularly tough, as the Jandilla bulls gored eight runners, with varying severity, at dramatic moments throughout the route. Reported by Ángel González Abad

Cleaning services are working hard to leave the streets of Pamplona spotless, not only for hygiene but also for safety in the face of the bull run.

Today the temperature has risen and the mercury is at 18 degrees, a very pleasant morning to enjoy the Sanfermines.

With Friday approaching, the streets of Pamplona feel the weekend is already approaching and many Sanfermin fans are encouraged to see and participate in this fifth bull run.

Yesterday, around ten o'clock at night, the Jandilla bulls marched from the Gas corrals to the Santo Domingo corrals. This 450-meter path is the encierrillo (running of the bulls), a little-known tradition observed in silence by very few spectators, and repeated every evening with the bulls from the following day's encierrillo (running of the bulls). A bugle call from the final destination announces that the path is clear, and the bulls, steers, and shepherds begin the encierrillo (running of the bulls) into the Pamplona night. No one is on the road, in an eerie atmosphere.

City Hall is providing daily passes, which are in high demand due to limited availability. Report: Ángel González Abad

If there's one breed that has earned the recognition of Pamplona fans for its performance both in the running of the bulls and in the bullring, it's Jandilla. Today, the breed features Domecq bulls, who debuted in 1983 and have displayed great character and bravery over the past thirty years. This breed has won the Carriquiri trophy for the bravest bull at the San Fermín fair on five occasions.

The Extremaduran brand Jandilla is participating in its 24th San Fermin bullfight. It's one of the most dangerous breeds in the running of the bulls, as its bulls always show off their bravery.

Good morning, we're ready to broadcast everything that happens during this fifth running of the bulls, in which the Jandilla bulls will delight the runners.
