This is Atalanta. She decided that she'd marry the man who beat her running. Unfortunately those who can not would be executed. After a lot of young mean not fast enough finally one boy beat her by dropping apples made of gold. Atalanta lost time picking them and so, she lost the race. (to be true, the girl wasn't running very fast because she liked the boy a lot but oh well) As I've said before one of the funniest things about mithologycal stories is their absolute lack of moral.
