The '''7 day run''' is a [[challenge run]] of ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' that involves only defeating the bosses to unlock each area and progress to the end of the game. Collecting all [[fruit]] is not possible as at least 3 more days are required to 100% the game (see [[10 day run]]). Fruit is only necessary to collect for survival purposes and it's possible to finish the game having only collected a single fruit (the [[Crimson Banquet]]). However, any combination of fruits is allowed and up to the player. This run can be done in conjunction with a [[zero death run]], [[42 Pikmin run]], or both. It's important to note that some days of the run require [[glitches]] that may be patched or have been patched to make it more difficult.

* Clipping to the [[Peckish Aristocrab]] plateau in the [[Garden of Hope]] revisit to skip building the pot-shaped bridge.
* Pushing down the [[paper bag]] in the [[Formidable Oak]] by using the [[Dodge Whistle]] (in the original ''Pikmin 3'') or repeatedly [[Charge|charging]] (in ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'').
