Zorrilla, former president of the Bolivian Olympic Committee, and first
president (1976-1982) of ODESUR. Gold medal winners from Ecuador were published by the Comité Olímpico Ecuatoriano.
A total of 27 events were contested, 23 by men and 4 by women. Unusually,
cross country events (individual and team) were part of the games.
