Klas Julius Lundström (19 February 1889 – 26 March 1951) was a Swedish track and field athlete who competed in the 1912 Summer Olympics.[3] He finished 13th in the individual cross country competition (ca. 12 km). This was the sixth-best Swedish result, so he was not awarded a medal in the team cross country competition, where only the best three were honoured. He also participated in the 5000 m event but failed to reach the final.[1][4]
