* There is a mismatch between the unofficial medal count above and the published medal count.^[5] This is explained by the fact that the source^[5] reports that in the women's 20 km race walk competition, Magaly Andrade from Ecuador won the silver medal and Luz Villamarín from Colombia won bronze. However, all other sources^{[1][2][3][6][7]} and a special report on the race walking competitions^[8] list Luz Villamarín second and Magaly Andrade third.
