The 2014 Last Annual Vol State 500K is underway. The race started in Dorena Landing, Missouri and will finish atop Sand Mountain in Georgia covering 314 miles along the way with 90% of those in the great state of Tennessee.

Greg Armstrong won the 2014 Last Annual Vol State 500K early this morning in a blazing 3 days 17 hours 50 minutes 52 seconds, the third fastest time ever. Read more about his win and race splits HERE.

Johan Steene, Sue Scholl, and Emilio Nunez all finished within the past 24 hours in less than 5 days that would have won almost every other Vol State 500K. Johan set the new uncrewed course record in 4 days 2 hours 5 minutes 16 seconds. Sue Scholl set the new female course record (while doing it uncrewed) in 4 days 12 hours 48 minutes and 4 seconds.
