Humanoid Robots Beat Human Half-Marathon World Record in Beijing

Humanoid robots competed in Beijing's half-marathon on April 19, with Honor's winning robot completing the 21km course in 50 minutes and 26 seconds—beating the human world record of 57:20 set by Ugandan runner Jacob Kiplimo. The event featured 300 robotic contestants from about 100 teams, up from last year's 2:40 fastest time, demonstrating rapid improvements in autonomous robot speed and endurance. The victory is notable given Honor only entered robotics in 2025, outpacing established Chinese robotics companies like Unitree.
