random speedrun thought: has there ever been a new world record of a very competitive speedrun (like pokemon or mario or zelda or something) at a marathon?

@noiob diddy kong racing is a fairly competitive one, at least, as we understand it, though it's definitely not one of the hyper-optimised speedruns

@Felthry a bunch of records also just got set because they were in games that usually aren't run RTA

@Felthry also the Minecraft Any% Set Seed WR is pretty cool because the runner also for the first time died at the same time as he was finishing the game

the Diddy Kong Racing one was apparently using a very new glitch
