In Osaka today, the worlds first Robot marathon begins. Don't take their size for granted - these guys are serious - as you can see from the training video below. It will take approximately four days to "run" the 42 Kilometers.
Personally, we're rooting for the 'flappy' one in second place - let's hope he pulls it together by race time. May the best robot win!
As they say in Robot speak (Binary, to you and me):
