Daley, among others.
Willie Williams told the athletes that after losing a race to his sister, he joined the Track Team, because he wanted to learn how to become fast enough to beat her in a race. One day, Olympic legend Jesse Owens came to his school. After meeting Jesse Owens, he rushed home after practice to tell his mother, that he learned the secret from Owens, and that he will never lose another race. His mother asked him, how come he will never lose another race? Willie Williams told his Mother that Jesse Owens told him that if he listened to his coaches, teachers, and parents, he would never lose. Willie Williams followed that formula and went on to break Jesse Owens world record in the 100m dash.
