Polish the stars

IMG_1893

Tomorrow is my last race of 2010. Ironman Arizona. I’m off to polish the stars. Wish me luck!

“Somebody has to go polish the stars,
They’re looking a little bit dull.
Somebody has to go polish the stars,
For the eagles and starlings and gulls
Have all been complaining they’re tarnished and worn,
They say they want new ones we cannot afford.
So please get your rags
And your polishing jars,
Somebody has to go polish the stars.”

ā€” Shel Silverstein (A Light in the Attic)
