The second edition, held on 10 February 1985, was the first to feature a race with the standard marathon distance of 42.195 km (26.2 mi).[1]:{{{3}}}[5]:{{{3}}} The marathon was won by Mexican runners Eduardo Blake and Esmeralda Gutiérrez, with finish times of 2:22:22 and 3:00:59, respectively.[1]:{{{3}}}[5]:{{{3}}}
