The First Capitol to Courthouse Ultra Marathon and Relay started at the State Capitol in Jefferson City and finished at the Boone County Court House in Columbia. The temperature at the start was 43 degrees, and the high was 66 degrees. The skies were partly cloudy, and the wind was minimal. Overall, the weather was almost perfect. All 8 individual runners completed the entire 39.3 miles, and it is noteworthy that none had ever tackled more than 26.2 miles prior to this Ultra. The male course record is now 6 hours, 39 seconds set by Michael Andreani. The male masters record was set by Mark Boucher in 7:57:18. The female course record and masters mark were both set by Mary Ellen Bradshaw in 7:08:27. The "CTC Guys" placed 1st of 12 teams in 3:57:18. The 2nd place team "In Good Company" was the first Coed team, finishing in 4:11:38. "Happy Hour" finished in 6th place and was the first all-female team. The race was held as a fundraiser for the American Heart Association and raised over $2,000 that was split between the Jefferson City and Columbia Chapters. Dana Kee was recognized with the "Most Generous Donation" award. The second annual race will reverse the course and be named the "Courthouse to Capitol Ultra Marathon and Relay" and is scheduled for 20 Oct 2012.
