Oh a day in the life of IN IT TO WIN IT . . . It is always exciting, never bland.We are three girls determined to win the race at whatever the cost. Our funny journey began the night of the kick off event. We hooted and hollered our way into the heart of Andrew Laker from The Republic who chased us down Fourth Street to get that winning front page story. Oh how his life has probably changed since then. We imagine awards and fame certainly followed that night for him.
That was a night of fun but there was also injury. The eye doctor of our group got glitter in her eye from one of the fan's signs that proudly displayed IN IT To WIN IT in bright glittery letters. Dr. Webb (Missi) is not really sure how it happened but thinks it was probably when the fans crowded around her and then threw her into the air passing her back and forth on their hands as if she was a star at a concert. Anyway, glitter did get in her eye and she readily retrieved it out like any sensible eye doctor would do. So why did she show up at the local ophthalmologists (Dr. Pankratz) the next day? Well, one tiny piece of glitter found its way down her tear duct, producing an awful reaction and requiring immediate medical attention. Luckily, she did recover! So alas, she took one for the team and continued on her race for the final prize!
