The '''Warthog Run''' is a type of gameplay segment in both [[Halo: Combat Evolved|''Halo: Combat Evolved'']]'s [[The Maw]] and [[Halo 3|''Halo 3'']]'s [[Halo (Halo 3 level)|Halo]]. It involves the [[John-117|Master Chief]] (or the [[Arbiter (character)|Arbiter]]) driving an [[M12 Chaingun Warthog]] to escape a Halo's destruction.
The '''Warthog Run''' is a part of both [[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'s [[The Maw]] and [[Halo 3]]'s [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Halo]]. It involves the [[Master Chief]] (or the [[Arbiter (character)|Arbiter]]) driving an [[M12 Warthog LRV]] to escape a Halo's destruction.


==''Halo: Combat Evolved'' Warthog Run==
==Halo: Combat Evolved Run==
In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', you must enter a vehicle bay and select a Warthog. You must drive around two kilometers down a Class seven Service Corridor to External Access Junction 4C, where you are to be extracted by [[Foehammer]]. However, [[Echo 419]] is shot down by [[Covenant]] [[Banshees]] as she tries to pick up the Chief one last time. After analyzing the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|UNSC ''Pillar of Autumn'']]'s inventory, [[Cortana]] tells the Chief to drive a further one kilometer to Launch Bay Seven, where a [[Longsword]] is still docked. As the Chief arrives in Launch Bay Seven, a pile of barrels prevents the warthog from going any further. This forces the Chief to run the last 100 meters on foot. On [[Easy]], [[Normal]] and [[Heroic]], you will have six minutes to reach the Longsword and make your escape. However, on [[Legendary]], you have only five.

==''Halo 3'' Warthog Run==
==Halo 3 Run==
After activating the replacement Alpha Halo, the Master Chief and the Arbiter must drive the late Sergeant Johnson's Warthog. They must drive the Warthog to the UNSC Frigate [[Forward Unto Dawn|''Forward Unto Dawn'']], which is waiting some distance away, for safety reasons. However, the panels on which the Chief is driving on are being destroyed by explosions caused by the incomplete Halo firing prematurely. When the Spartan reaches the ''Forward Unto Dawn'', he must accelerate to full speed and jump into the frigate's hangar bay. There is no time limit in ''Halo 3'', but if you take too long, the panels will collapse, making it impossible to complete the run. Note that the harder the difficulty, more panels will be destroyed, thus making the run harder than it normally would be.

*''Halo 3'''s final cutscene occurs in the middle of the jump, and shows the Warthog going into a uncontrollable roll. However, as you can see if you exit the Warthog at the right point in your jump, so that the cutscene is not triggered, the Warthog actually makes a perfect landing just inside the Dawn's hangar bay.
