The '''Goron Race''' is a racing [[Mini-Game|mini-game]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' that [[Goron Link]] can participate in at the [[Goron Racetrack]]. To access the racetrack, [[Link (Ocarina of Time)#Majora's Mask|Link]] must defeat [[Goht]] in [[Snowhead Temple]] to return spring to the [[Mountain Village]], then use a [[Powder Keg]] as a [[Goron]] to blow up the rock near the entrance. The track is full of twists, turns, and many [[Bomb Flower]]s along the way as Link races four other Gorons. The reward for successfully coming in first place is a [[Bottle]] of [[Gold Dust]], used by [[Zubora]] and [[Gabora]] to upgrade Link's [[Razor Sword]] to the [[Gilded Sword]]. Winning the Goron Race can be quite the challenge to one who didn't grab the magic upgrade from the [[Great Fairy]] in [[Snowhead]]. Even though there are magic pots on the track, if Link isn't fast enough, other [[Goron]]s will run into them and break them, preventing Link from replenishing his magic while racing. Also, the AI of the Gorons is pretty good, so if Link doesn't take the shortest route possible on the track, he is probably going to be defeated. Another annoyance is that if Link is hit once by a [[Goron]], then he will begin to flash red, and if he is hit again, his boost will be negated and he will be knocked on the ground. Link can use this on other Gorons, but it can be difficult to master.
