La Gliséeenne is a running race in Glisy, in the Somme department of Hauts-de-France, typically held in late April. Its primary format is distinctive: runners traverse the same 2 km loop, with elimination for anyone missing the time limit after each circuit.
The cutoffs become more demanding as the race progresses, beginning at 12 minutes for the initial loop and decreasing to 6:30 by the last listed loop. This transforms the race from steady pacing into a test of speed. Local groups in Glisy organize the event, which features low-cost entry and cash prizes awarded to the top five men and women, ranging from €100 for first place down to €20 for fifth. Listings also indicate a 3.8 km children’s race, offering a shorter option alongside the elimination format.
