"You can ride the marienweg by bike. Many also run and pick out sections", female pastor andreas hornung. He likes to ride his bike himself.

Gnodstadt shakes up the league

While fellow promoted teams SV huttenheim and hohenfeld/RW kitzingen are worried about staying in the league, michael rieger's eleven are in the top half of the table. Six strong victories before the winter break catapulted the players from the marktbreit suburb to sixth place and even within striking distance of the relegation zone. And it is precisely this that the upstart has now actually set its sights on.

The gnodstadters had digested the "business accident" B-class – for the first time in the club's history, TSV played in this league – and returned to the A-class as champions after only one season. There was no doubt about it that the yellow-green. They only had to share the points three times in 21 other victories, and even then michael rieger, who replaced promotion coach claus hoh in the summer, recognized: "the team has substance.

Urban population will not grow for the first time in 2020

Urban population will not grow for the first time in 2020

For many years, the rule for students and young professionals from the countryside or small towns was: get out of the children’s room and into a student dormitory or a shared apartment in a large city for the new phase of life after school.

However, the corona pandemic put the brakes on everything last year. In view of digital lectures, the move was postponed. Other job-related moves were also lower – in times of pandemic-related short-time work and uncertain future prospects, job and location changes are rare. This is also reflected in the figures published by the federal statistical office on thursday: there were declines in 2020 both in moves within germany – so-called internal migration – and in moves to and from abroad.

From fatburner to zumba

From fatburner to zumba

Off the couch and into the sneakers it was last saturday for the 65 participants of the aerobic event at the caspar-vischer-gymnasium (CVG).
The P-seminar sport under the direction of kathrin krebs had invited to a rough workout day in the gyms of the CVG and the pestalozzi school, a great opportunity to get to know new trend sports in particular. The registered participants were able to choose from twelve courses of one hour each – a total of four hours of power sports.
Well, if you had chosen your courses cleverly, some of the participants might still have felt an over-acidification of the muscles the next day. "Of course, four hours of intensive sports is a lot, but we trust that everyone knows his or her own body and will stop when it’s no longer possible", said sports teacher kathrin krebs.

Fitness studios participated

The 13 students of the P-seminar were divided into three groups: organization, sponsors and aerobics. The latter was responsible for selecting the workshops and contacting the participating fitness studios. "We studied the internet offers of the different studios and made a preselection", explained tina schlee from Q12. It was important to include sports that were not yet so well known. "But we didn’t just decide on paper, we took part in the lessons ourselves so that we could better assess the content." The result was a colorful offering that ranged from fascia training to fat burner, thai yoga or crossfit to zumba or pilates.
