It went over her head and fell to the side of Atlanta. She stopped and had to run to get it. Hippomenes ran by. Atlanta looked up and she saw him in front. So she ran faster than the fastest bird. She came near! Then she flew past him and was in front again. Again he threw another apple over her head and to the side. Again she stopped to pick it up.
When she reached Hippomenes the third time, he threw the third apple so far to the side that she had further to go. She saw it and wanted it. So she ran and picked it up. By that time Hippomenes was tired and could not run so fast. He was not so far in front. Atlanta ran fast but the apples were heavy and she could not catch up with him. So Hippomenes won the race and married Atlanta. Thanks to the Goddess they lived happily ever after.
