AB - By iterating the Bolyai-Rényi transformation $T(x)=(x+1)^{2} \hspace{4.44443pt}(\@mod \; 1)$, almost every real number $x\in [0,1)$ can be expanded as a continued radical expression \[ x=-1+\sqrt{x_{1}+\sqrt{x_{2}+\cdots +\sqrt{x_{n}+\cdots }}} \] with digits $x_{n}\in \lbrace 0,1,2\rbrace $ for all $n\in \mathbb {N}$. For any real number $x\in [0,1)$ and digit $i\in \lbrace 0,1,2\rbrace $, let $r_{n}(x,i)$ be the maximal length of consecutive $i$’s in the first $n$ digits of the Bolyai-Rényi expansion of $x$. We study the asymptotic behavior of the run-length function $r_{n}(x,i)$. We prove that for any digit $i\in \lbrace 0,1,2\rbrace $, the Lebesgue measure of the set \[ D(i)=\Bigl \lbrace x\in [0,1)\colon \lim _{n\rightarrow \infty } \frac{r_n(x,i)}{\log n}=\frac{1}{\log \theta _{i}} \Bigr \rbrace \] is $1$, where $\theta _{i}=1+\sqrt{4i+1}$. We also obtain that the level set \[ E_{\alpha }(i)=\Bigl \lbrace x\in [0,1)\colon \lim _{n\rightarrow \infty } \frac{r_n(x,i)}{\log n}=\alpha \Bigr \rbrace \] is of full Hausdorff dimension for any $0\le \alpha \le \infty $.
