Gameplay
In this event, the player starts automatically, and can accelerate using right on 
and jump by pressing 
. The player must aim to avoid the Brick Blocks along the course, as hitting one without a Barrier will cause their character to retire and record no time for the event. The player can pick up Barriers and Mushrooms which are scattered along the course, the former of which provides protection from one hit of a Brick Block on the course at the cost of speed, and the latter which can be collected to perform Mushroom Dashes by pressing 
. The player can hold up to five Mushrooms at a time and will gain a short boost of speed by performing a Mushroom Dash, however using up multiple Mushrooms at a time will not increase the speed boost received. The character that completes the course in the fastest time wins the event. Uniquely, this event takes place entirely in 2D, including the athlete introduction and awards ceremony.
