Inaugural ProRL Combine

ProRLleague
Seaport District, Boston, Massachusetts, USA

First Professional Robotics League event in American history. Humanoid and quadruped robots raced on a 50 m spectator-lined course. The 50 m sprint has no ratified World Athletics record at this distance, so event_types is empty; the ledger tracks this in spirit via the ProRL sanctioning body entry but the course distance falls outside Bioparity's anchored record list.
