With new coach, new home, Andre De Grasse feeling good as push begins toward Paris Olympics

After some major life changes including moving cities and changing coaches, Canadian Olympic champion sprinter Andre De Grasse is finally settling into his new surroundings in Orlando, Fla., and is ready to start mapping out what success looks like this season. 

In December, the six–time Olympic medallist, the country's most decorated male Olympian, announced he had changed coaches and was hitting the reset button ahead of the looming Paris 2024 Olympics. 

De Grasse, 28, is now working with Irishman John Coghlan to get his sprinting back on track ahead of this summer's world championships in after a frustrating 2022 that included a foot injury and two bouts of COVID-19. 

Coghlan has an accomplished resume. He moved from Dublin to Orlando in 2020 to work with Puerto Rico hurdler Jasmine Camacho-Quinn. At the Tokyo Games, Camacho-Quinn won the 100-metre hurdles to deliver Puerto Rico's first Olympic gold in track and field. 

"It's going to be an adjustment. We're only three months into training and still trying to get to know each other and get on the same page. But so far, so good," De Grasse told CBC Sports. "I'm trying to adjust to the move too. It's always a little bit stressful moving cities and places, especially now with kids."

De Grasse had spent the last three seasons working with his former coach Rana Reider, who is being investigated by the U.S. Center for SafeSport for sexual misconduct. De Grasse told the Canadian Press in December the change "had nothing to do really with what was happening."

De Grasse and his partner, Nia Ali, an American hurdler, have three young children and are both high-performance athletes, so there is pressure on and off the track for both in their busy lives. 

For De Grasse, though,
