In July 2002 in a daring and valiant attempt to promote an alternative to the animal cruelty associated with the Running of the Bulls, 25 streakers ran the famed San Fermin course in Pamplona, tackle out! Today the event has a name, the Running of the Nudes, and a place on the calendar, two days before the setting off of the chupinazo to mark the beginning of the San Fermin festival in Pamplona, Spain.

Paricipants, nude or close to it, donned in red scarves and plastic horns bounce and jiggle there way along the half-mile course in an event where organisers aim to highlight the cruelty implicit in el encierro and bull-fighting in general. Unsuprisingly, the Running of the Nudes garners a heap of worldwide media and public attention and although the run lasts little more than an hour, the celebration in true Spanish fiesta tradition, kicks on all night and then some.
