About the 10th Annual Holly Springs Half Marathon, 10k & 5k
The race starts at Ting Park, home to a baseball stadium, and heads out on a downhill opening stretch before hitting the rolling terrain around Anchor Creek. From there the routes split, with the longer course winding through several neighborhoods, a historic district, and down Main Street before picking up the Middle Creek Greenway for a long out-and-back stretch. The shorter courses stay closer to the greenway.
Parking is at Ting Park off Sportsmanship Way, reachable from both N. Main Street and the highway bypass. The awards ceremony is held inside the stadium on the concourse, and there is a pancake breakfast and a beer company special release at the finish area.
