(2025 连云港)On 19 April 2025, the world’s first half-marathon for humanoid(人形的) robots was held in Beijing. The robots waited beside human runners, starting from the same line.
“I saw many robots running. Some were surprisingly fast,others had very lovely designs,and their running styles were quite different,” said Zhang Huihui,who took part in the race.
During the 21-kilometre-long race, the robots had to run on two legs. Some even wore running shoes. Each robot was supported by a team of human guides,operators(操作员) and engineers. They could have their batteries changed during the race. Teams could even use new robots when the old ones could no longer run.
There were 20 teams in the race and six of them made it to the end. Tiangong Ultra won the first in two hours and 40 minutes. “It crossed the finish line about 30 minutes earlier than expected,” said Xiong Youjun,CEO of a robot centre. “In general,all the robots today could deal with challenges such as turns and speed bumps. We made history together.”
“Robots’ completing the race isn’t the finish line. It’s the starting point for the growth of the robot industry,” said Liang Liang,from Yizhuang’s Administrative Committee.
Although the robots fell from time to time,the event proved that they could do real-life tasks. Liang added,“Their small steps today will become giant leaps for human technological progress tomorrow.”
