bull run in Madrid/San Sebastián de los Reyes

So Im going to be in Madrid from the 28th of august to the 31st and I am wanting to do the Running of the Bulls that happens in San Sebastián de los Reyes as my first Bull Run. I was wondering if anyone could give me more information on it or maybe some tips? How do I go about getting in the run, can I just show up? Is there a section of the run that is better for beginners? Basically what all do I have to do to make this happen and survive!?!? haha I am really excited about it, but not ignorant to the danger so any tips would be really appreciated!

I think you can just join in (at your own risk), but the running occurs in early July. :(

@Nicole - the running of the bulls in Pamplona is in July, in Sebastián de los Reyes it is indeed in August during the time Luis will be there.

yup its a week long thing there, my birthday is the 27th and I'll be in Ibiza for that, but nothing like celebrating your 26th year of life by having a horde of angry bulls running at you, am i right? lol
