'I'm not proud of it' - Junelle Bromfield forced to apologize to fiancé Noah Lyles after major engagement blunder
Junelle Bromfield had to make a promise to her fiancé Noah Lyles after forgetting one of the most important things since their highly publicized engagement.
“I’m truly grateful for the incredible life I’ve been blessed with and the opportunities to form meaningful connections with numerous extraordinary individuals. Now lounging on my couch, reflecting on the challenges of this year and looking forward to an even brighter future with God’s direction,” Lokedi shared.
Starting her season at the Boston Marathon, Lokedi finished an impressive second behind Hellen Obiri before racing at the Mastercard New York Mini 10K where she finished second. Lokedi was a last-minute addition to the Paris Olympic marathon team and she put up a good fight to settle for fourth.
Heading to the TCS New York City Marathon, Lokedi finished a distant ninth despite going into the race with the much-needed confidence and readiness to reclaim the title she won in 2022. Speaking about her New York City Marathon setback, Lokedi explained that it has been a long season and she gave her all but it was not the best.
“Tough one for me today! Still grateful to have finished healthy! It’s been a long year! Going to take some well-earned time off now,” she said.
“Thank you @nyrr @nycmarathon @tcsglobal for putting on another wonderful race in NYC. Thank you to every part of my crew, family, teammates and coaches. Special thank you to @underarmour for providing all the support someone could need to be their best. To my sponsors @uarunning @maurten_official @missionrun_darksky @teamtotalathletics and everyone I haven’t mentioned, thank you! I am blessed to have your support.”
