The thing is, I think it's more realistic for them to run.

Absolutely. Xenophon said that when the enemy cavalry dashed at the peltasts and archers, they jumped out of the way and opened files in their rank, and forced them through with missile fire. Then they harassed from all sides. It isn't mentioned that they closed in on them with daggers.

The only I can think of who need a 'double' attack, is the Immortals, which where allegedly armed with both a Persian bow and a spear.
