Two new scenarios are proposed which generalize the standard story leading to the pseudoparadox of
the Einsteinian relativistic twins, thereby enabling some deeper understanding. First, Aesop’s fable
‘The Hare and the Tortoise’ is considered in the light of Einsteinian chronogeometry. It is then
shown that the Hare, while arriving later than the Tortoise, may still be the winner of the race—or
at least may consider itself to be. Second, the situation is considered where the twin initially
left at home decides to catch up his brother during his travel. Can they meet so that they may
celebrate a common anniversary and recover the same age?
