has anyone ever actually made a lego bot that meets the definition of
running? Lately there have been a lot of bots like the Twirp and my own Son

their stride they fall forward or backward. I'd like to work on some thing
that runs, or encourage everyone to try as well.

forward in a propulsive manner where legs and feet that move in a relatively
smooth cycle and propel the bot off the ground for a second during stride.
thanks in advance
