If you're looking for a new workout partner we may have the answer for you. 

Meet Cassie. She's a robot created at Oregon State University, and is the first two-legged robot to be able to walk and run outside.  

She recently completed a 5K run. She fell twice but finished in under an hour. Not Olympic speed yet but maybe in 2024.
