The sprint power couple of Olympic champion Noah Lyles and Jamaican Athlete Junelle Bromfield continue to thrill fans with sneak peaks into their professional lives.

Olympic champion Noah Lyles and his fiancee, Jamaican sprinter Junelle Bromfield, have been captivating fans with glimpses into their personal and professional lives since announcing their engagement in October.

Their latest playful interaction, however, turned into a spirited competition that saw Lyles coming up short.

In a video shared with their fans on Lyles YouTube channel, the sprint power couple challenged each other to a forward jump drill.

The exercise involved hopping 50 meters on one leg before switching to the other leg for another 50 meters. From the start, their competitive energy was on full display.

"I'm only doing one foot," Bromfield remarked before beginning the routine, to which Lyles teasingly retorted, "She got excuses now. She's only doing one foot. The whole exercise is all the way through, you do one foot to the blue and you switch."

Undeterred, Bromfield countered, "Let me show you how you do it," and proceeded to perform the drill.

Her technique, however, drew immediate critique from Lyles. "You're supposed to be going out, not up, and you didn't do the whole drill," he remarked.

When the fans weighed in, they overwhelmingly voted for Bromfield, much to Lyles’ dismay. Refusing to accept defeat, Lyles suggested a redo.

After the second round, however, the fans remained steadfast in their support of Bromfield, confirming her as the winner once again.

"It's the one exercise I can do better than him," Bromfield quipped, relishing her victory.

Accepting the results with humor, Lyles conceded, "I'll take the L. If the people have spoken, the people have spoken. I’ll believe they’re telling the truth."

This playful challenge underscores the pair’s lighthearted relationship and competitive spirit, offering fans a delightful glimpse into the lives of two of track and field’s stars.
