Richard "Dick" Grant (1878-1958) was a Canadian runner who competed in the 1900 Summer Olympics on the United States team. He is the brother of Alex Grant, who also competed.
At the 1900 Olympics, the marathon was held on a hot 103 degree day, and only seven runners finished. The American runners claimed that the European runners cut the course, so Grant finished either sixth of seventh.
