Team USA star sprinter Noah Lyles wants more than just gold medals as he prepares for the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Lyles was aiming to pull off the sprint double in the 100m and 200m events. But he failed to qualify for the 100m before finishing third in a 200m final he was favored to win. After earning bronze, Lyles“Somebody asked me why I told people on Twitter that I was on antidepressants. It was strictly for the idea that I had taken something and it made me feel better," Lyles said at the time.
Lyles' performance on the track would seem to back that statement up. At last summer's world championships in Budapest, Hungary, he became the first male sprinter since Usain Bolt in 2015 toLyles is next looking to make history as the first male sprinter since Bolt to pull off the sprint double at anof 19.19 seconds that has stood since the 2009 worlds. Lyles' personal best in the 200m is 19.31 seconds, which he recorded at the 2022 worlds.

It's time to really start figuring out what is the best solution for the future and not what has worked in the past. "I still got Olympic gold medals to get. I still got records to break. Why shoot for the clouds when you can aim for the stars?"The date for Diner en Blanc Philadelphia 2024 is set…but you still have to wait a bit for the location
