Knut Emil Willehard Alm (5 March 1889 – 3 June 1969) was a Swedish runner. He competed in cross-country events at the 1920 Summer Olympics and finished 30th individually. Although he was a member of the bronze medal winning Swedish cross country team, he did not receive a medal because only three best runners from each team were honored, while Hedwall was sixth.[2][3]
