“I have to keep reinventing myself"- Noah Lyles opens up bringing changes for Paris Olympics after 3-medal win at 2023 World Championships

Noah Lyles shared that he would have to keep reinventing himself and not stick to the training regime that earned him three golds in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay at the 2024 World Championships in Budapest. He and his long-term coach Lance Brauman are shaving fractions off a second of his start.

Noah Lyles has gained massive fame over the past couple of months after his three-peat achievement at the 2023 World Championships. In the following months, he won the 4x100m relay at the 2024 World Relays to solidify his reigning position. Moreover, he also ran 60m (which typically demands a faster start) in the build-up to the Summer Games to improve his speed and get a better start.

At the 2024 USATF Indoor Championships, Lyles defeated world record holder, Christian Coleman, to claim the 60m title. He also competed in the 60m at the 2024 World Indoor Championships, where he settled for silver.

In a recent interview, the six-time world champion said that continuing to train like he used to earlier wouldn't help him bag three golds in Paris, and he shall keep changing his strategies to achieve his goal at the Olympics.

"I have to keep reinventing myself. We were all just trying to do what I did last year and I realized when I started doing that, that's when I start getting complacent, he said. (via GQ Sports)

He further alerted his rivals with a bold message, saying:

"If that doesn't invoke fear in people, then you guys are just ignorant to what's coming."

At the recent London Diamond League, Noah Lyles ran the 100m in 9.81s, recording his best time and perfectly setting himself up for the Paris Olympics.

After his achievement, Lyles sent out a bold message to put his rivals on notice.

"Everything I throw up, Blow up!"

Noah Lyles finished first in the 100m and 200m at the 2024 US Olympic Trials, clocking 9.83s and 19.53s, respectively. His efforts in the 200m broke Michael Johnson's long-standing record of 19.66s, which he set 28 years ago.
