At the moment my daily exercise schedule is rudely punctuated by sometime called work.
But my manger recently told me that things don't look so bright for the future, so just in case we move town, country or even continent I thought I'd share the highlight of each morning with you , that is; the daily run (or perhaps cycle) to work.
As soon as I step out of my door I am reminded of the sporting nature of Lausanne (home of the International Olympic Committee)
A nice gentle downhill, the start of many on the way to the office . Check out those overhead wires for the trolley buses
The first of many buildings where people can converse with their imaginary friend
Recently refurbished, the local church now has such a charming architecture
Our first town, La Sallaz
Down the leafy lane towards the big Lausanne. You can to annoy motorist by running past them since here there is often something very unusual for Switzerland .. a traffic jam.
Today it is overcast and the outlines of the mountains on the other side of the lake are barely visible

First water stop. Since there's no evidence of horses in Lausanne I can only assume these special water stations are provided just for runners such as me!
Our local computer shop and one of 3 in Lausanne! Hey, don't tell me we are living in a village.
I am delighted to see that many people work hard here to keep the streets beautifully clean
First sight of Lausanne Cathedral

If you are caught drunk or behaving badly you might be escorted to spend the night at the Hotel de Police. Yes, it is a hotel and there will be charge for this pleasure.
Hmm .. advertising for the forthcoming Marathon
In the very heart of the big city Lausanne
After 3 years of waiting the Lausanne Metro extension is nearly complete. This is the new fancy headquarters with the grass covered facade. Apparently it cost a small fortune.
More evidence of cleaning vehicles ... superb
Another water fountain. So for runners; no need to carry those heavy hydration supplies. They're making it too easy for me!

I run past the slow and completely superfluous duplicate set of traffic lights near Malley. Since I am not cycling today there is no slowdown
Running past Renens train station I notice a good train full of logs. How quaint
The local AUDI Garage and R8 retailer
I think something is telling me I must participate in the forthcoming marathon
The local fire station
Nearly there. For reasons of security I cannot say where or who I'm working for, just that they are terribly nice people.
