Noah Lyles posted a bittersweet message to Instagram after withdrawing from the Paris Olympics

Team USA track and field superstar Noah Lyles‘ 2024 Paris Olympics journey has come to a close.

After he took the bronze in the 200 meter relay and revealed he ran the Olympic race with a COVID diagnosis, Lyles shared on Instagram in a bittersweet post that he would not compete in any other track and field events in Paris this week.

“I believe this will be the end of my 2024 Olympics,” Lyles wrote in the message. “It is not the Olympic I dreamed of but it has left me with so much Joy in my heart. I hope everyone enjoyed the show.”

Lyles took the gold in the 100 meter relay for Team USA before taking the bronze in the 200m on Thursday.
