The Speed Gamers have been scattered throughout the lands of Hyrule and Lorule and forced to compete against each other...for charity! Beginning June 24th at 6pm CST and running through July 1st, TSG will be hosting its sixth Zelda Marathon, benefitting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital..

For one full week, the members of TSG will be split into two teams, Team Hyrule and Team Lorule. As teams, they will compete against each other in a series of gaming speedruns and other various challenges set in The Legend of Zelda franchise.

It will ultimately take the combined force of our teams’ power, wisdom, and courage to determine a champion. The teams will be rewarded points on how well they perform various tasks, such as speedrunning, competitive stunts, and The Legend of Zelda trivia. At the end of the week the team with the most points will be crowned the tri-hard champions and will be awarded the legendary Tri-Hard Clock.

Please help us in raising support and donations for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by stopping by our channel, twitch.tv/thespeedgamers, and cheering on your team of choice. Remember, no matter which team you support, 100% of the proceeds will be going toward a great cause, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Thank you, and we hope to see you in our chat!

May the best team win,
TheSpeedGamers


TheSpeedGamers organization was formed back in 2008 in the middle of a weekend game bender among friends with the central idea being, “If we’re going to do this anyway (this being playing games with very little sleep), we might as well do it for a cause.” Since then, we have been fortunate enough to raise over $600,000 for various domestic and international charities. Please visit http://blog.tsg.tv/past-marathons/ for a complete list of sponsored charties and the full amounts raised.
