Classic Quarter - foretelling of a coast path traverse in something approaching verse

Tomorrow, at ridiculously early o'clock some of my colleagues from PKF-Francis Clark Chartered accountants & business advisers are heading off to partake in the Classic Quarter ("CQ"). To commemorate the occasion a poem, of sorts, has been written, which I share with you below..

?

A coast path run

With camaraderie and fun

The CQ is this weekend

44 miles from Lizard to Lands End

?

Not including me

There are 17 (yes 17!) from FC

Who will be participating

And hopefully later celebrating

?

Beauty will be in abundance

To distract from the endurance

Keep the sea on your left, directions enough

Eyes and ears open for Cornish Choughs

?

Sea pinks are in bloom, just

Taking in the views is a must

Individuals become teams as batons are passed

Does not matter whether one is first or last

?

For each it will be a journey

Physically and mentally

Traversing the SW coast path

There may be tears, and a few laughs..

?

So, come down and cheer them on

Maybe in Penzance or Marazion

Or if not just wish them well

And on Tuesday ask them stories to tell

?
