Theodorus Jacobus Leonardus "Dick" Quax (born 1 January 1948) is a New Zealand runner and former world record holder in the 5000 metres, and local-body politician. He stood for Parliament for the ACT Party in 1999 and 2002. He was a Manukau City councillor from 2001 to 2007, when he stood unsuccessfully for mayor, and has been an Auckland Councillor since 2011.
==Athletic career==
At the 1970 British Commonwealth Games, Quax won the silver medal in the 1500 metres. In the 5000 m, at the 1972 Summer Olympics he was eliminated in the heats, but he won silver in 1976. He did not compete in 1980 in Moscow due to the West's boycott.〔
In 1977 at Stockholm he set a world record of 13:12.9 in the 5000 m. This record stood for less than a year, but as a national record it stood for over 31 years, until beaten by Adrian Blincoe in July 2008.〔()〕
Early in 1980 at Stanford Stadium Quax missed Jos Hermens' 15 km world record by five seconds, running a New Zealand national record of 43:01.7.
In his later career Quax switched his focus to the marathon, running 2:11.13 in his debut for 4th place at the Nike/OTC Marathon in 1979, at that time the fastest debut marathon in history. In 1980 he returned and won the race in a New Zealand record time of 2:10.47.
After retiring from competition, Quax established a career in sports management.
