The object of a speed run is simply to time how long it takes to complete a game from start to finish. As a form of practice speed runners often break up the required milestones of the game into segments so that they can time, and improve upon their run through a specific required section of the game. Speed running can be conducted in a side-to-side marathon-like session, or simply recorded by an individual as a means to claim a speed run record.

Any% is a category often used in many speedruns. For most ''Zelda'' games, this allows the use of virtually any glitch that is available in the game, with a few exceptions.

Several Zelda games have a number of unintended bugs that can be taken advantage of to improve a speed running time. For instance, in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]' there are several hidden portals, ways to access blocked areas, and in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' it is possible to walk at normal speed with the [[Iron Boots]] on. | Several Zelda games have a number of unintended bugs that can be taken advantage of to improve a speed running time.
