    21 humanoid robots joined a half-marathon in China.

    They ran a separate-from-humans 21-kilometer (or almost 13.5-mile) track on Saturday in Beijing — a first, according to Reuters. Each had support from accompanying engineers for battery swaps or to pick them up when they fell. No wheeled robots were allowed.

    The fastest robot was the Tiangong Ultra from the Beijing Innovation Center of Human Robotics, at 2 hours and 40 minutes, while the winning human runner’s time was 1 hour and 2 minutes, Reuters reports.
