Even I can finish Kona's Ironman faster than this robot (13:08 on a bad day)! But that's not the point here.

I want that hat/helmet, and I will wear it while I "watch" the race from Kona Brew and wash down my Captain Cooks pizza with a Fire Rock or maybe a Longboard...

Doubtful.

Actually, I'm more impressed by Cornell's Ranger robot, which did a crutch-style "walk" around a track for 40.5 miles.
