Wed Nov 13 00:25:49 UTC 2024: ## Olympic Champion Noah Lyles Defeats YouTuber Speed in Charity Race, Wins $100,000 for Charity
In a highly anticipated match-up, Olympic gold medalist Noah Lyles easily defeated popular YouTuber Speed in a 50-meter race on Wednesday. The race, held for charity, saw $100,000 wagered on the outcome, with the winner donating the prize money to a cause of their choice.
Lyles, widely considered the world’s fastest man, lived up to his reputation, showcasing his superior speed and technique. Despite slowing down in the final meters and playfully exaggerating his form, he maintained a comfortable lead, ultimately securing victory.
Speed, known for his online antics, was no match for the seasoned Olympian, though he claimed to have won. He will now have to change his username on a social media platform of his choice to “IShowSlow” for 24 hours, as a lighthearted punishment for his boastful claim.
After the race, Lyles offered Speed a chance to train with him for a week and then compete in a 100-meter race. This challenge, which Lyles won gold in at the 2024 Paris Games, promises to be an even more exciting match-up, with both athletes preparing for a rematch in the coming week.
