The older I have gotten the more I suck at video games. My reflexes are off. I die a lot. I throw a lot of controllers and yell at the TV as if the fake video game characters can hear me. You know who doesn’t suck at video games? The speed runners currently playing at Awesome Games Done Quickly 2020 (AGDQ 2020).

These gamers aren’t playing for fame or to simply show off their awesome skills. They are playing for charity. This year’s charity is The Prevent Cancer Foundation. My mom has beat cancer for 18 years. Her mother was not so lucky. Cancer took her life at age 51. Many people out there have lost or seen a loved one suffer due to cancer.

Cancer blows. But these awesome gamers kick cancer right in the ass! If you have never seen a speed run, you are missing out on tons of fun. These gamers make the hardest games look easy. Some of the glitches are as comical as they are amazing to watch. And all of this for a good cause.

You can tune into the runs on Twitch here and watch live! Please donate for this great cause. To add, I am not paid or endorsed by Twitch or anyone from AGDQ. If anything, you would donate to not watch me play games.
