Atalanta, the Greek Goddess of Running, is one of the lesser-known gods worth knowing about. Atalanta was abandoned in a forest on a mountaintop by her father Iasion (Schoneneus or Minyas in some versions), who was disappointed she was not a boy. The Goddess Artemis sent a she-bear to raise her.
The legend goes that Atalanta took a vow of virginity and declared the only man she would marry had to beat her in a footrace, or forfeit his life. less
