Shadow the Hedgehog (GCN) - Expert Mode (Glitchless) speedrun in

3rd place out of 4 places on speedrun.com at time of achievement. I achieved this record on September 11, 2023. This speedrun was live streamed on Twitch. This is my eigth completed speedrun of this category.
This is a speedrun of Expert Mode without using glitches or doing some things that go against the spirit of a glitchless speedrun. This category uses in-game time as the timing method. In-game time is calculated by adding the levels’ times up, and if needed, adding time between the start of a stage/checkpoint and losing a life as a penalty. You add the time on the timer when you restart a level too. The rules for this category say that you can’t use Chaos Control Glitch, Warping (such as warping by wall running), go out of bounds, and do some other things specifically disallowed because they don’t make sense in a glitchless speedrun.
