$25 for a Color Me Rad 5K Run on Saturday, April 13 (Up to $50 Value)

Adorned in white T-shirts, runners convene at Cricket Wireless Amphitheater on Saturday, April 13, for the Color Me Rad 5K race. Racers can run headlong toward newly vibrant exteriors in waves leaving at 9 a.m., 9:20 a.m., 9:40 a.m., or 10 a.m. at the course in Wyandotte County Park. Proceeds benefit Special Olympics Kansas.

Color Me Rad

Color Me Rad stages 5K races that transform runners into mobile rainbows by launching cheerful barrages of colored cornstarch. Each color station along the racetrack flings a new, nontoxic pigment at passersby, who wear white shirts to enhance the chromatic onslaught's costuming effects. Brilliant neon-blue, green, purple, and yellow clouds dapple participants along the way, and the race concludes with a prismatic finish-line finale as sprinters chuck colors at each other in celebration. The race's noncompetitive credo shifts the emphasis from speed to silliness, and a portion of its proceeds go to local charities.

Upon registration, each runner collects a Color Me Rad T-shirt, sunglasses, sponsor gifts, and a race bib. Though they don't receive a gift packet, runners younger than 8 years old can sprint for free, provided they have a waiver signed by a guardian and won't give in to demands for gold from confused leprechauns.

The Groupon Guide to: Farm Animals

The act of taking care of farm animals is called “husbandry” because of the old saying “You think taking care of pigs is hard—try taking care of my husband!” Here’s a guide to the animals you can expect to find on your local farm:

Cows: Cows are one of the ugliest animals to look at, but in a national taste test they were found to have the best-tasting milk. Visit a local farm to taste the milk of these horrific beasts for yourself.

Horses: Horses are the supermodels of the animal world. Farmers will spend hours at a time grooming and complimenting a prized horse, just to see a flash of its big, toothy smile.

Pigs: Don’t even get a farmer talking about these fun lovers. Pigs are the party animals of the barnyard, and if you don’t believe it, just hold a yummy treat above their snouts and watch them dance!

Dog: Every barnyard has to have a dog. A dog is a farmer’s best friend and will stand by him through everything, even during the farmer’s loneliest days, when he realizes that in cultivating his farm he has lost sight of that which he should have been cultivating most—relationships with humans.

In a national taste test one farm animal was found to have the best-tasting milk—you’ll be surprised by the ugly answer!
