Walking - Group
SPORT in Corona times - Annual reports 2020 As a rule, after a year our members are informed about the activities in the individual departments with annual reports in the TV-aktuell magazine. This time Corona "put a spoke in the wheel." Alternatively, our Saturday gymnasts and the walking group provide some information below about what has happened or happened alternatively. Health was always the priority and the Corona regulations were and are still observed without any ifs or buts. WALKING: As always, we started in the winter with gymnastics in the hall. The first lockdown began at the beginning of March. It lasted until mid-May. In keeping with tradition, we had already planned a trip to Bonn and Koblenz in terms of dates and organization, but unfortunately we had to say goodbye to it. For me, the time had come, which I had already envisaged, to hand over the leadership of the group - which I had "founded" in 1997 - to Heide Kühlborn at the age of 85. Heide is a well-trained instructor. She has always stood by my side as a representative in recent years. The time after the ban was lifted was used with great interest and enthusiasm to walk on the tried and tested routes in the fields and forests, left and right of the Aar. We were able to practice our walking activities with full commitment until the end of October. Then, for the second time, our beloved walking was "stamped at a standstill". Sad times began. We also had to forego our Christmas party. At least we ALL brought home a "celebratory meal" at the Seelbacher Hof to eat on this planned holiday. It is pleasing that the group still has a good bond.

SATURDAY GYMNASTICS: It can be noted here that in the "free" summer months, gymnastics was practiced even more intensively in the open air than in the hall. This took place on suitable landscape and meadow land in fields, forests and meadows. The Saturday gymnasts particularly enjoyed being able to move their bodies from head to toe on the flat dry grass up on the Bitzen. During the time when there was a lockdown according to the Corona rules, I recommended training at home. For this purpose, gymnastics pictures with text explanations were made available weekly by e-mail. Telephone contact is currently being maintained. We can hardly wait until we hear, "You can again..." Alfred Benner
Since walking became "in", the gymnastics club has been offering this trend sport on a regular basis. In the beginning, walking was laughed at, but today it is celebrated. There is no media that does not regularly report on the sporting importance of walking in an inexhaustible and well-founded way. It is no wonder that the TV walking group now has over 20 active members. It is a mixed group, with a roughly equal number of men and women. Gymnastic exercises are integrated into the walking routine. Socializing is also very important and brings the group together. This includes a summer barbecue, a Christmas party, participation in TV hikes and an annual day trip or excursion lasting several days. Practice location: Meeting point by arrangement Practice times: Mondays, 5 p.m. Contact: Heide Kühlborn Tel. 0 27 72 / 6 29 59
