Noah Lyles is on a mission to make 2024 his year. The 2023 “3Peat” World Champions’ track triumph began when he blazed through the 2024 indoor season openers, clinching the US Indoor National Championship title in the 60m stunning fans. Lyles then went on to earn silver medals in the 60m and men’s 4x400m relay at the World Indoor Championships, showcasing his versatility beyond his usual forte in the 100m and 200m outdoor events.

This remarkable feat only heightened the excitement among fans as Lyles set his sights on the Paris Olympics, declaring with determination, “All the Olympic medals. I don’t care who wants it. It’s mine.” Now, as he continues to dominate in the outdoor season races, Lyles once again reveals the deep drive pushing him toward success at the Paris Olympics.

Noah Lyles shares his drive for gold at the Paris Olympics

Noah Lyles has his sights set high for the Paris Olympics 2024, aiming to compete in the 100m, 200m, 4x100m, and 4x400m events. After securing a recent win at the USATF Bermuda Grand Prix 2024, Lyles shared his drive for the upcoming Olympics. In a post on X by NBC Olympics & Paralympics, a short snippet of an interview with the speedster was shared.

When asked about his journey to gold, beamingly, the US Indoor Champion shared, “I’ve already have, you know. Ever since indoor, I’ve been thinking about it so, even though imma push it a little further back because we got to go to the Olympic trials and make the team first and that’s still ringing in my head.” As we reflect on his words and his ambitious goals, let’s take a look at how Noah Lyles has won his first two races of the 2024 outdoor season.

His outdoor season so far

Noah Lyles kicked off his international outdoor season with a bang, winning the 100-meter dash at the USATF Bermuda Grand Prix in impressive fashion. Clocking in at 9.96 seconds, Lyles dipped below the 10-second mark, despite facing a 3.0 meters/second tailwind. The reigning world champion in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m events, Lyles secured a narrow victory over Canadian 100m champion Aaron Brown, who finished just 13 hundredths of a second behind him.

This marked Lyles’ second individual outdoor race of the year, following his 10.01-second performance at the University of Florida on April 13. In that race, he narrowly edged out 200-meter silver medalist Kenny Bednarek by a mere five-thousandths of a second. With only 52 days remaining until the 2024 U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials in Eugene, Oregon, scheduled for June 21–30, 2024, and just 86 days until the Paris Olympics, fans are eagerly anticipating Noah Lyles’ quest for gold. Lyles is aiming for a remarkable ‘sprint quadruple’ medal haul, eyeing Usain Bolt’s title as the ‘fastest man alive’. Do you think he has what it takes to achieve this extraordinary feat?
