Men's Half Marathon

Teleoperation does not represent humanoid capability parity. A human pilot provided continuous locomotion control during the event. Recorded for field completeness; does not constitute a parity attempt.

First humanoid across the finish line at the 2026 Beijing E-Town Humanoid Half Marathon in 48:19, operating under remote/teleoperated control. Event-organizer rules penalized teleoperation with a 20% time handicap, moving Honor's autonomous Lightning run (50:26) into the recognized 'winner' slot in coverage. Bioparity records the raw 48:19 finish per Global Times / NPR reporting.

Beijing E-Town 2026 humanoid half-marathon conducted under event-organizer rules that permitted human handlers, battery swaps, and course corrections during the run. These interventions disqualify results from parity comparison against the World Athletics half-marathon record.

Autonomy status not documented in available sources. Per Global Times coverage, the Beijing E-Town 2026 event had 18 autonomous and 29 teleoperated completions, but K1's specific classification was not reported. Recorded with unknown autonomy pending verification.

Booster Robotics' K1 model finished the 2026 Beijing E-Town Humanoid Half Marathon in 1:53:00 per Global Times coverage (2026-04-19). The article reports 47 of the starting ~100 teams completed the course (18 autonomous, 29 teleoperated) but does not classify K1's specific autonomy tier.
