China races robots against humans in Beijing half marathon

At Saturday’s Yizhuang half-marathon in Beijing, robots competed alongside humans.

Over a 21 km (13 mile) course with slopes, turns, and uneven surfaces, 21 humanoid robots, created by Chinese manufacturers, competed alongside thousands of runners.

Some robots won the race, while others struggled right from the beginning. Before getting up and taking off, a robot fell at the starting line and lay flat for a while.
