Early Life
Noah Lyles was born to Keisha Caine and Kevin Lyles on July 18, 1997, in Gainesville, Florida, United States. His father Kevin Lyles as well as his mother Keisha Caine were athletes in their college. At Seton Hall University, he competed in track and field. T. C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia was his alma mater.
Josephus Lyles, his younger brother, competes in the Diamond League Monaco 200m race. Noah won the 200-meter race at the Diamond League Monaco tournament in 19.76 seconds, beating his brother Josephus Lyles.
Noah Lyles Career
He was just 12 years old when he was a gymnast and eventually started track and field. During his junior year of high school in January 2015, he cleared 2.03 m (6 ft 7 + 34 inches) in the high jump. In November 2015, Track & Field News named him the 2015 high school boys athlete of the year, and he accepted the honor.
At the New Balance Nationals Indoor in March 2016, Lyle took first place in the 200m. In April 2016, he set two new meeting records, the first in 10.17 seconds and the second in 20.48 seconds. Noah Lyles was named the 2016 High School Boys Athlete of the Year by Track & Field News magazine.
He earned his first senior national title in the 300 m at the 2017 USA Indoor Championships in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in the thin air of the city’s suffocating atmosphere. At the World Relays, he competed for Team USA in the 4 x 200-meter relays, where they took home a silver medal.
Against this, Noah and his younger brother Josephus turned professional in July 2016 and inked a contract with the Adidas soccer brand. Lyles set a new world record and set a new personal best in the 200 m in the Monaco Grand Prix, clocking a time of 19.65 seconds.
With that performance, he was ranked among the top 10 quickest men in the history of the 200-meter race. As part of the Athletissima IAAF Diamond League meet, Lyles equaled his personal best and took over the world lead from Michael Norman in a much-anticipated duel. The next season, he broke the 19.70-second barrier for the fourth time.
