For any $x\in [0,1)$, let $x=[{ϵ}_1,{ϵ}_2,\cdots ,]$ be its dyadic expansion. Call $r_n\left(x\right):=max\{j\ge 1:{ϵ}_{i+1}=\cdots ={ϵ}_{i+j}=1$, $0\le i\le n-j\}$ the $n$-th maximal run-length function of $x$. P. Erdös and A. Rényi showed that ${lim}_{n\to \infty }{r}_n\left(x\right)/{log}_{2}n=1$ almost surely. This paper is concentrated on the points violating the above law. The size of sets of points, whose run-length function assumes on other possible asymptotic behaviors than ${log}_{2}n$, is quantified by their Hausdorff dimension.
