[@Thaliva123]

I think it’s so much easier to increase a second each year for four years.

[@blessedzulu]

@@Thaliva123 it really does seem like a realistic yet challenging enough goal to aim at. Super stuff.

@@biscuitoliva7159 your parents are right. Just because u want to do something or are interested does not mean u should pursue it. Now u are earning money better than that what u were wishing for. Because there is very tough competition in the world and u cannot survive on what money u get. There is no money in sports until u are a megastar. U ran fast in school from and won a couple of competition does not mean u could pursue track and field. Your parents knew that for sure and u were acting like a silly kid

He said something that I hope everyone picked up: it is easier to accomplish when the family is together. Ditto, young man. I respect the family and all those supporting him in this quest to be the best. It is rough when the finances are limited, as some say, money funny, but these are the things and situations which build character. Mom, you are a champion of a woman. Three cheers (not chairs) and two tables!

If we had more moms like that imagine how a community would look, in more fathers hanging in there and sacrificing like moms imagine how things will look, I just wish all people will understand without sacrifice there is no hope.

[@trackandfieldarchive]

I'm surprised they didn't interview their father, Kevin, who was a member of the 1995 4x400 US gold medal team (ran the heats as an alternate and was an All-American for Seton Hall in the 90's). The boys are the spitting image of Kevin.

[@Brave-828]

Because he seems a deadbeat dad. A bum who left all parenting to the boys’ mother

[@trackandfieldarchive]

@@Brave-828 don't comment on what you don't know. I know Kevin and while the boys live with mum (also an SHU alum), he still has a very good relationship with the boys. Kevin himself is a very humble man.

[@kentcarter606]

Noah is going to do it!! America is going to take back the fastest man in the world record again.. Usain Bolt will not have his world record anymore in the 200.. Noah Lyles is going to break it once he gets his start perfected, such an amazing time and just the greatest athlete, such an amazing strong backstory and everything with this kid. I hope he takes the 100 and 200 world record but I don't know if he will run the 100 hopefully he does..
