Henry Louis Scott (November 16, 1889 – June 1960) was an American long-distance runner who competed in the 1912 Summer Olympics.[3] He was part of the American team which won the gold medal in the 3000 m team event. He also competed in the final of the 5000 m, but his place is unknown. In the 10000 m competition he did not finish the final, due to a strong heat.[4] At the same Olympics he finished 24th in the individual cross country race.[1]
