I am a runner and enjoy running in the Lochmere / Cary Parkway / Regency area, but would never run along Holly Springs Road. There is no running area and no sidewalks. Let alone - cars fly up and down that road. I find it quite dangerous and rarely see anyone riding or running along Holly Springs Road. That is not saying that noone does, but I would find it very hard to avoid any sorts of dangerous situations (cars, traffic, etc) on that particular stretch
Running on holly springs was always dangerous if you like your ankles; no way to get off a fairly narrow road.
It has become more dangerous for cyclists as traffic has increased but a few years ago it was a very common road to ride. Back 05 to 08 if you had been there early in the morning you'd have seen at least a few of us on it most days of the week.
