One day the Hare laughed at the short feet and slow speed of the Tortoise. The Tortoise replied: "You may be as fast as the wind, but I will beat you in a race!"
The Hare thought this idea was impossible and he agreed to the proposal. It was agreed that the Fox should choose the course and be the judge at the finishing line. The Hare ran fast and stopped to lie down. The day for the race came, and the Tortoise and Hare started together. The Tortoise never stopped for a moment, walking slowly but steadily, without rest. But the Hare fell asleep. Eventually, he woke up and ran as fast as he could. But when he reached the finishing line, he saw the Tortoise there already, sleeping comfortably after her effort.
