! YA Heroines ! discussion

Soooooooo who likes riddles? Well, I do and I hope you guys too.

So let me just get to the point, this is how you play:
I'll post a riddle that you have to figure out. I won't make it too hard so I'll give the occasional hint. After 5 incorrect guesses or the space of 2 days (which ever happens first) the correct answer will be given. Anbody can post a riddle as long as it isn't too hard, but they have to come back and eventually post the correct answer. OK? Ok.

Here goes...

I'm going to post another now. :)

Three brothers share a family sport:
A non-stop marathon
The oldest one is fat and short
And trudges slowly on
The middle brother's tall and slim
And keeps a steady pace
The youngest runs just like the wind,
A-speeding through the race
"He's young in years, we let him run,"
The other brothers say
"'Cause though he's surely number one,
He's second, in a way."

I'm so clueless but i'm thinking on it

Oh wait. Is it a clock?

Yes Hay is correct.
