    The fable is about a tortoise challenging a hare to a race. The hare runs very fast in the beginning and gets far ahead of the tortoise but stops to take a nap, allowing the persistent tortoise to steadily catch up and pass the hare to win the race. The moral of the story is that steady and persistent efforts are more effective than moments of quick action without follow-through.
