According to the quoted post, a humanoid robot ran 100 meters in 9.39 seconds at the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing — faster than Usain Bolt's 9.58s world record. The commenter was more impressed by the steering, noting that running straight for 100m is itself hard for robots (implying conditions like tethers may apply).
