SpeedRunsLive.com
In 2009, SpeedRunsLive.com is created by Narcissa Wright and Daniel 'Jiano' Hart as a way for speedrunners to showcase off speedrunning races in real time with a set goal that can range from something as broad as any% or 100% to something narrow such as beating all child dungeons in Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. Each game has a dedicated leaderboard that shows who is the top player for the game.

Competitive Speedrunning
The first ever competitive speedrunning tournament was organized by the Global Speedrunning Association called PACE. The game lineup consisted of Super Mario Odyssey (Any%), Super Mario 64 (70 Star), and Celeste (Any%). The participants at PACE are based on the standings of those who compete in multiple circuits leading up to the tournament; the top runners for those games are able to compete in the finals that will take place in person. The tournament has brought on some controversy due to how the tournament could destroy the community feel that speedrunning is known for and how the tournament was organized: it would not show how speedrunning is different than any other esport tournament. They are also the first speedrunning tournament that features cash prizes. SpeedGaming.com also has listings of current and upcoming speedrunning tournaments. Each tournament has their own specific rules depending on what the tournament is based on. Speedrun.com also has community tournament listings posted on their forums, their sitewide tournament being Speedrun Weekly: a tournament where each week the site votes on what game and category to race. SpeedRunsLive also has held some competitions in the past such as their sites Race Seasons 1 and 2 and they are currently gearing up for their 14th Mystery Tournament. GSA also has daily listings of tournaments either organized by them or listing other community's tournament listings. Most, if not all,tournaments are broadcasted on the site's twitch.tv channels; the runners either compete in person or stream the game from their residencies with a timer.
