Template:MinigameIn Majora's Mask, after Link defeats Goht in Snowhead Temple, he becomes eligible as a participant of the Goron Races[1], also known as the Patriarch's Race.[2] The race is held every spring at the Goron Racetrack.

To gain access to the racing grounds, Link will first needs to buy a Goron Powder Keg and blow up the huge boulder blocking the way. The entrance is located on the top of the hill beside the pond.

Link's objective in the race is to speed his way past several other Gorons by rolling to the finish line. On the way he encounters many obstacles including Bomb Flowers, trees, a bridge and other Gorons. To ensure his victory, Link neeeds to pick up as many magic pots and roll up as many ramps on the track as possible. Once he succeeds, he will be rewarded with Gold Dust, which can be used to create the Gilded Sword. In fact, each time the young hero wins the race, he'll be awarded with Gold Dust, which can be sold in exchange of money.
