The second edition of the "Maratona das Águas" (Waters Marathon) was a success and achieved its maximum capacity of 350 runners. The course, passing through 5 cities of the "water circuit" (water fountains area and a tourist destination), is very hilly and considered the toughest in Brazil. The winners were Marcos Antonio Ferreira Lopes (2:34:51) and Ivani Gomes dos Santos (3:24:10).
