In reality, it's cheetah-ing. Now MIT has their own BD-like 10 MPH bounding robot which would motivate me to stay on 6-minute mile pace for my next marathon. Need to see if Cheetah is good for 26 miles.

    I didn't really get a 'Cheetah' impression, it was more of a 'foraging Easter Bunny' kind of impression.
    Wonder what kind of payload it can carry? it was kind of bouncy, might break the eggs...
