Notes from All over

On Wednesday, I’m heading to Spain for my annual running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain. I get a lot of questions about the run. I’ve ran 11 times. The run dates back to the 14th century. It was started by Spanish butchers, and they wore white and red outfits, which most of us still wear today. The length is .54 miles and ends in the bullring. It lasts 2-3 minutes.
