The Story of the Hare and the Tortoise

    Once in a faraway of an island, the hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. "I have never yet been beaten," said the hare arrogantly, "when I put forth my full speed. I challenge anyone here to race with me." the tortoise said quietly, "I accept your challenge." "That is a good joke," said the hare." I could dance around you all the way." "Alright, keep on your boasting until you've beaten." answered the tortoise. "Shall we race?"

    Subsequently, a course was fixed and a start was made. The hare darted almost out of sight at once, but soon stopped and to
show his contempt for the tortoise, lay down to have a nap, he saw the tortoise nearing the finish line and he could not catch up in time to save the race.

What did the hare do in that race while the tortoise plodded on?
