Humanoid Robots Can Run, But Marathons Might Be Beyond Them
Briefly

At the Beijing E-Town Humanoid Robot Half Marathon, only six out of 21 competing humanoid robots finished the race, with Tiangong Ultra completing it in 2 hours and 40 minutes. This performance, while not competitive with human runners topping the race in just over an hour, shows progress in robotics. Engineers have successfully built robots capable of half-marathon competition, albeit with significant endurance issues. The event highlights both the advancements in technology and the current limitations that robotics still face in replicating human physical capabilities.
