Wow!
She looks better, she has gotten rid of that shoulder rock-lateral movement.

I'm surprised that the focus here is on his 100m or even his 400m potential, with apparently little to no discussion of the 200m. It's as if everyone thinks Lyles is so stamped as the king over 200m that it's not a thing.
Norman ran 1* 200m last year and beat Lyles. Now he runs 9.86.
He's run 43:mid.
IMO that potentially puts him into MJ and even WR range for the 200m.
Am I wrong?

MJ was age 31 when he set the then WR of 43.18; one month short of reaching age 32.
WvN was age 24 when he set the WR of 43.03; one month after reaching age 24.
MN was age 21 when he ran 43.45.
Norman has several more years of running. A 400m WR is certainly within his reach. Especially when you take into consideration the big drops in time by WvN (0.45s improvement) and MJ (0.21s improvement). Norman could have a similar multi-tenths drop in the 400m.
In the 200m Norman, and Lyles, could both go under 19.4. The 2nd and 3rd fastest 200m runners ever each had a significant jump: MJ from 19.66 to 19.32; and Yohan Blake from 19.78 to 19.26.
Is Michael Norman clean?
So what’s happening with Norman?
Anyone? Anyone?
Bueller?
WHERE the heck are all the fanbois?
Lyles looking in control, but times not up to Norman's.
He’s “not quite up to” 9.86, but I would put him up against Norman any day in a 100m.
Boy Lyles seems to take a long time to really hit his stride. He’s really got that Lewis thing going, where he ever-so-slowly unfurls his ultimate stride length, as his cadence decreases. Like Lewis was, he’s super-smooth at it. The perfect blend of cadence+length at all points after 60m is what gives him that great 100m SE, and 200m finish.
So again, WHERE IS NORMAN? You guys were so hot on him, I figured you’d know exactly what he is doing.
