Shoot, I wrote ultrathon! Good quiz, but maybe remove the 'Ludwig van' because 'Ludwig van Beethoven' does not begin with B.

True, but it's said in the caveat that alphabetization is according to the surname. I have a habit of giving just the surname as the answer only if I mention the first name in the clue, but in this case the question would be way too easy if I did that. Just the surname is, however, accepted as a type-in.
