"I will run 9.65 19.10", He wrote.

"They say if they don't know your dreams then they can't shoot them down", Lyles wrote. "But I have always been more of a guy who loves to hear the screams from the heaters, got a nice ring to it", he continued.

Lyles' best timing of 200m is 19.31 seconds, behind Bolt's 19.19 seconds and Yohan Blake's 19.26 seconds. If Lyles runs his 200m in 19.10 seconds, he will shatter Bolt's records, which stood still for 14 years.
