$30 for a 5K-Charity-Run Entry for One ($60 Value)

On Sunday, March 10, runners will swarm the Parks Convention Center Office / Woodward Regional Park for the Graffiti Run. Armed with a race T-shirt, headband, and color packet, runners dash, dance, prance, and skip along the 5K course with the goal of finishing in the most fun and most colorful way possible. Children aged 5 or younger can run free with a parent.

The first wave begins at 9 a.m., and groups of 500 runners will be released every 20 minutes afterward until everyone has had time to enter the course; runners should arrive by 8 a.m. to get ready. After the race, runners can stop by air-blown cleaning stations to remove some of the loose color powder, though most people also bring towels to protect their car seats on the ride home. Proceeds from the race benefit local charities.

Graffiti Run

The creators of Graffiti Run use the term “run” very loosely. Less of a race, and more a celebration of the human spirit, the Graffiti Run encourages participants to dash, dance, prance, skip, cartwheel, or walk the course as they douse each other in vibrant hues that span the full spectrum. Each run also donates a portion of proceeds to a local charity, which range from Special Olympics affiliates and scholarship funds to city cleanup and beautification projects.

The Groupon Guide to: Scaring Yourself

Whether you're attempting to cure hiccups or simply bringing your heart rate up to trick people into thinking you're capable of love, there are many methods to giving yourself a good scare:

  • Stare into the cold, black, unfeeling eyes of a dolphin.
  • Blindfold yourself while someone plays an MP3 that sounds like fireworks going off dangerously close to you.
  • Look at some pictures of air pollution from a 1970s textbook (air pollution is still around, but it was scarier back then).
  • Try to maintain eye contact while shaking the hand of your more successful father.
  • The next time you travel by air, imagine the worst—the airplane could be full of Chuckies.

What are the most popular ways to scare yourself? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
