When the Sun comes up a Lion awakens he knows that he must outrun the slowest Gazelle or he will starve. When the Sun comes up a Gazelle also awakens, he knows that he must outrun the fastest Lion or he will be eaten. So in the end, it does not matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle, when the Sun comes up, you better be running!
