The men's 20 kilometres walk competition of the athletics events at the 2015 Pan American Games will take place on the 19 of July on a temporary circuit around the Ontario Place West Channel.[1] The defending Pan American Games champion is Erick Barrondo of Guatemala.
Walking on home soil, Evan Dunfee was frustrated by the slow pace 1 km into the race, so he decided to make what turned into a one-man breakaway for victory. His Canadian training partner Inaki Gomez came in second more than a minute back after fighting a strategic battle with the rest of the field until the last lap.[2]
