Two-time World 200m champion Noah Lyles has teased about running a 400m in April following his last open race in 2016.
Triple World champion Noah Lyles has set the record straight as he seeks to make an impression at the Olympic Games in Paris, France later this month.
Lyles seeks to win a quadruple on the global stage and if not, he promised to go for three of the world records including the 100m and 200m set by Usain Bolt. He will also attack the 4x100m relay world record set by the Jamaicans.
“Last year I went out there and won three gold medals. This year I want to get four. And if I don’t get four, I am going after three world records. If I don’t succeed, I will try, try, try again,” he added.

In a bid to achieve that, he opened up on the possibility of running his first 400m race since 2016. He has only competed once in a 400m race at the Forestville McNamara Mustangs Invitational back in 2016 where he won the race. Last year, he competed in the Pepsi Florida Relays in the 4x400m relay where his team won.
“To be honest, I can run a 43 (second relay split) for certain. It’s just, don't put me on last leg, and don't put me on first.
“Put me on second or third. I need something to chase. If you give the baton to me in first, I'm gonna keep it there.

Legendary sprinter Michael Johnson has marveled at Josh Kerr's decision to compete at the World Indoor Championships, noting what it indicates.
“But if I have somebody to chase, or if I'm on the second leg and I'm going first (place) and I know that if I create a huge gap and give it to the person in third like that's what motivates me,” Lyles said concerning the relay.
