Last week on the blog, we wrote about the new Marathon record —3,820 Type Races in 24 hours.
In a chat with him about that record, ⦗𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐋⦘ ⦓☾✹✯𝚅𝚒𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚎✯✹☽⦔ (Viellain – TRData) promised that “I will do a marathon to end all marathons later in September.” For Vielle, “later in September” meant exactly one day after we announced the first record. On Sep. 9-10 Vielle beat the Marathon record again (daily competition results for 9/10) , achieving 4,892 races within 24 hours. See the record on TypeRacerData.com.
In the TypeRacer Discord, he described his marathon as below budget and ahead of schedule. Congrats to ECOL/Vielle on setting what may really be a marathon that ends all marathons! Here’s what we know about the marathon:
- It required staying up for 24 hours of continuous typing
- It required skipping meals – he consumed only an energy drink between races.
- There was only one bathroom break (post-energy drink).
- His account was upgraded to Premium last week (as a congrats! gift), enabling him to squeeze out more races than he was last time with his basic account (i.e., he was able to save practice races or ghost races etc.)
Join us in the TypeRacer Discord to chat about typing, find out what it’s like to type for 24 hours straight, etc. 
In Vielle’s words: “All hail and Glory to the Empyrean Forces, for we are the Conquering OverLords” -ECOL/Vielle
[Update: A previous version of this article indicated that Vielle had eaten minimal snacks during the record-setting marathon — it’s been corrected to say “no food”.]
