Gate News message, April 19 — The 2026 Beijing Yizhuang Half Marathon featuring humanoid robots kicked off on April 19, with competitors racing 21.0975 kilometers. The champion was the autonomous navigation team Qitian Dasheng, using Honor’s “Lightning” robot, which completed the race in 50 minutes 26 seconds.
The first robot to cross the finish line was from the remote-control team Jueying Chitu, also using Honor’s “Lightning” robot, with a net time of 48 minutes 19 seconds and speeds exceeding 7 meters per second throughout most of the course. However, after applying the race’s 1.2 weighting coefficient for remote-control teams, the final time was approximately 57 minutes, placing it behind the autonomous champion.
According to race rules, both autonomous and remote-control categories use mixed timing with unified rankings. Penalties apply for out-of-station battery swaps: 5 minutes for the first occurrence and 10 minutes for the second, with cumulative increases thereafter. Robot replacements incur 15-minute penalties for the first swap and 20 minutes for the second. Autonomous teams with more than three instances of unauthorized human intervention are reclassified to the remote-control category for scoring.
