If you thought bipedal robots were limited to the somewhat creepy and sweet breakdancing moves of Boston Dynamics’ Atlas, think again, because the robots are now coming for your marathon medals.

More than 20 robots took to the streets of China over the weekend to compete against real people in the first-ever human-humanoid half-marathon. The robots were from various manufacturers, and, like people, came in all different sizes.

Some wore running shoes for the 13-mile trek, some ran on their bare feet. Some had eerily human-looking heads, some had traditional robotic, metallic heads. They ranged from 4 feet tall to nearly 6 feet tall — but all were vaguely human-shaped.

As a safety precaution, run organizers separated the human runners from the robot runners. They ran on parallel, but identical courses.

The race wasn’t for everyone. Some robots finished the race but others fell over at the start line and lay there (I understand you, robot), lost parts along the route, overheated, and needed assistance or crashed into railings.

The fastest robot among the finishers was Tiangong Ultra produced by the Beijing Innovation Center Huan Robotics with a time 2 hours and forty minutes. The fastest human competitor in the competition ran a half-marathon in 1 hour and 2 minute. However, the average time for a novice is between 2 hours, 25 minutes, and 3 hours, 15 minutes depending on their age.

At a prize-giving ceremony at the end of the race, organizers gave out prizes for the best endurance, or the least number of pit stops to change batteries, the best gait and the most innovative form.

While robots can’t compete with the best human runners in a half-marathon, they can run it just as fast as anyone else. That’s pretty impressive. Tech Today’s newsletterwill deliver the morning’s most important stories to your inbox every day.
