Klas Lundström
Klas Julius Lundström (19 February 1889 – 26 March 1951) was a Swedish track and field athlete who competed in the 1912 Summer Olympics. He finished 13th in the individual cross country competition (ca. 12 km).

He also participated in the 5000 m event but failed to reach the final.[1][3]
