'I don't make enough money...'- Olympic champion Noah Lyles opens up about practical difficulties of managing fame
Paris Olympic champion Noah Lyles explains the challenges of handling fame and battling mental issues at the same time.
Thompson-Herah, who wrapped up her 2024 season earlier this year, dazzled her followers with her chic holiday ensemble.
In the Instagram post, the track and field legend posed in front of a car adorned with Christmas decorations, exuding charm in a denim jacket and skirt combo paired with a crisp white top and sleek black boots.
She also gave her audience a peek at the scenic beauty of her city, encapsulating the warmth and vibrancy of the holiday season.
The post was captioned simply, "Merry Christmas🎄🎁."
The sprinter’s festive post comes after a challenging year on the track. Her 2024 season was brief, featuring only two competitions—the Prefontaine Classic and the USATF NYC Grand Prix.
Despite her best efforts, she finished ninth in both events and suffered an Achilles injury at the latter, which ultimately forced her to withdraw from the Jamaican trials.
This withdrawal meant she missed out on the opportunity to compete at the Paris Olympics, an unfortunate turn of events for the decorated Olympian.
