The 10th Annual Holly Springs Half Marathon brings you race distances of Half Marathon, 10k & 5k. Whether you are a seasoned runner or hoping to complete your first distance race, you’ll absolutely love these course options. It offers a little bit of everything…from rolling hills to fast flats…from open neighborhood roads to greenways and down Main Street. The Holly Springs Half Marathon, 10k & 5k races introduces runners to the best that our town has to offer.
All 3 races start from Ting Park, the home of Holly Springs Salamanders’ baseball stadium, tennis & pickleball, and Wake FC soccer located at the North Main Athletic Complex. Runners will begin their journey just outside the stadium and have a fast down hill start, onto Sportsmanship Way and approach N. Main St. Crossing Main St., for the first mile all runners will be challenged, and rewarded, by the rolling hills of Anchor Creek as they approach the entrance to Middle Creek Greenway.
From here, the 3 races split with the Half Marathon runners heading south through the neighborhoods of Bridgewater, Windcrest, Sunset Ridge, Veterans Park, Jones Park, through the historic district and down Main St., and into Womble Park. A figure-eight loop through Womble Park will have you doubling back along the same route back to the entrance of the Middle Creek Greenway at about mile 7.2. The next 5 miles are along the greenway with turn-arounds at both ends before re-joining Anchor Creek Way for the last mile back to the finish line.
The 10k and 5k courses enter the Middle Creek Greenway from Anchor Creek Way just short of mile 1 for the respective races. At the junction of the access ramp, The 10k makes a hairpin right turn and first heads south wandering along Middle Creek to the aid-station near the Wood Creek development for a turn-around and a return north to the next turn-around at Sunset Lake Road. The 5k course also heads down the access ramp to the greenway, but first heads north to the turn-around at Sunset Lake. Both courses turn-around at Sunset Lake and return south to the junction proceeding up the ramp back to Anchor Creek Way for the last mile to the Finish line.
