“The goal is to win the World Championships Indoor 60m…there will be no 200m this time around. I think Fred also said he wants to run his first 60m too,” Lyles said during an interview on Instagram.

The American enjoyed an amazing 2023 season and he will be keen to extend his winning streak to the 2024 season.

He won triple gold at the World Championships, bagging the 100m and 200m titles and propelling his team to the 4x100m relay gold.

He is now hungry for more and he is eyeing an Olympic quadruple at the Olympic Games in Paris, France.

During an interview with World Athletics, he said: “I’m not different. I’m still the same Noah. If anything, I’m more hungry than before because I’ve proved to myself that I can do it, so now I’m even more eager to do it next year. It’s almost like another fire has been ignited for next year.”
