About this race
Les Boucles de la Risle is a Sunday morning road race held in La Vieille-Lyre, Eure department, Normandy. It offers 5 km and 10 km distances, both commencing at the Parc des Loisirs. The Association des Boucles de la Risle organizes the event, which is part of the Challenge Bitume 27 and marks its 16th year.
The race format is simple: participants select either the 5 km or the 10 km race, with both starting simultaneously from the leisure park. The theme, “Sur les pas de Bourvil,” connects the race to local culture, honoring the French performer. Runners with an FFA license can participate; those without must provide a PPS health certificate. Younger runners are accommodated in the minimes category for the 5 km and the cadets category for the 10 km. The 10 km race provides cash prizes for the top male and female finishers, while the 5 km awards cups and prizes to its leading runners.
