Norman set a personal best of 8:18.65 in winning the steeplechase title at the 2024 British Athletics Championships, but was not selected for the Paris Olympics, despite being given an invitation to compete by World Athletics, as his time was 0.15 seconds off the standard set by UK Athletics.[6][7]
