After slaving at this game for 3 STRAIGHT months (literally), learning, rerouting, discovering, practicing and attempting, I finally have a run that I can be happy with for the time being.  

Props to GreenTunic, Rapid_, Zmaster, TGH and the LADX discord for finding most of these strats and time savers.  Also props to PresjPolk for setting up the Zelda bounty race which lead me to speedrun this game.

I had one of the best beginnings of the run, only to lose most of it right away in Dungeon 1, but the rest went very well with some exceptions.

Time loses:
Didn't do Tarin skip (don't know how much time it will save, but buying an extra set of bombs would make the run less bomb-dependent for sure).
Didn't do the walk over the pit before Dungeon 1 (saves like 6 seconds)
Dungeon 1 chokes
D7 was less than average, went a little slower due to bomb urgency, and then there's Goomba surf.  
D5 chokes (I think I literally blanked out at a few parts).
D3 failed ICS
Fireroding seemed optimal at first, but then went to "I'll work when I want to work" mode.  It's still something I can't get consistently down yet.
Blue ball
Ganon derp
I attempted my Deathl manipulation and it was working, until I realized I didn't have enough hearts for it.
General scattered
