Snapshot of the day:
Cycling to work is fun
For some reason. Beyond my understanding. My regular bike to work (still) draws exclamations of amazement from some work colleagues. Walking into the office on Thursday morning with my bicycle helmet in my hand, I heard the usual comments. For the record: Cycling to work is fun. I don’t need to force myself to get… Continue reading Cycling to work is fun
Jog log
I went for a 60 minute run today. I did some stairs and ran up a steep hill. Good running weather today. This Apple ad (that just played on TV) fits well: Tomorrow is a new day.

It gave me access to the entire album, not just the hit singles. And it didn’t drain a student’s budget. And… Continue reading How I used to listen to music
Jog log on a Thursday evening
I went for a short 30 minute run. Happy I made it out of the door. Looking forward to the weekend and more running.

Architecture snapshots of Lucerne train station
Some snapshots taken at the Lucerne train station. Santiago Calatrava designed the entrance hall of the Lucerne train station.

Running plans
Last Friday I ran 6.5 km at the annual Firmenlauf. Quite a party with over 3700 participants. Took 6 minutes before I crossed the starting line ‘cos of the huge crowd of runners and walkers. Wow. Quite impressive. I ran slowly and steadily from start to finish. Proud to say I didn’t stop running even… Continue reading Running plans
A valid question?
A tweet to keep. I stumbled across this C.S. Lewis quote: “Notice how we are perpetually surprised at time… In heavens name, why? Unless, indeed, there is something in us which is not temporal.” — C. S. Lewis (@CSLewisDaily) July 6, 2014 A valid question to consider. Sun’s shining. A beautiful day lies ahead. Will… Continue reading A valid question?

The term “Growth hacking” has officially reached Germanic shores. The German magazine t3n.de published this post on how to become a growth hacker (it’s in German). Cool marketing folks already have an account at http://growthhackers.com/ or follow the Twitter stream.
