Athletics at the 2003 Pan American Games – Women's 800 metres

The final of the Women's 800 metres event at the 2003 Pan American Games took place on Wednesday August 6, 2003, with the heats staged a day earlier. Marian Burnett won the only silver medal for Guyana at the 2003 Pan American Games. Letitia Vriesde won the race when it was held, but was disqualified a few days later after testing positive for excessive levels of caffeine. The gold medal was therefore awarded to Adriana Muñoz.
