A '''speed run''' or '''speedrun''' is an attempt by players to finish any [[campaign]] level as fast as possible. This is done by having good understanding of the game's gameplay mechanics and exploiting these mechanics. Common methods in a ''Halo'' speedrun is by using [[explosive jumping]] technique, careful selection of weapons and bypassing as much engagement as possible. To make it even more challenging, several speedruns would be played in [[Legendary]] difficulty setting with all [[skull]]s on.


Speed running can also include going to certain areas to avoid enemies, or skip parts of the level, this can be seen on ''Halo 2'', on the level [[Outskirts]], where you can skip from the start of the level to the part where you meet up with Marines. Such tactics are very helpful on [[Legendary]].

On the [[Silent Cartographer]],
*You can disable the security system without first going underground where the door locks.
*If you have full overshields, you can jump down to the bottom of the level with the map room after the cut scene with Master Chief kicking the rock into the pit.
*By positioning your [[Warthog]] precisely near the locked door, you can skip the security substation completely.
*From the third level of the substation (if the first level is at the entrance), it is possible to drop onto the overshield without taking any fall damage.
Speed running is often used in campaign scoring to get the speed multiplier.
