-Outdoor Functional Training for All Fitness Levels- Join us as we combine healthy, balanced movement with fun, gamified ideas to give you our unique FUNctional training! And in case that doesn’t really tell you what to expect, just think short intervals of exercise combined together in a playful and interactive way to help you strengthen your body in a sustainable way while allowing you to meet new people (and often even forget how hard you’re working out). As a reminder for those nervous about their fitness level: Everything we do, we do with all fitness levels in mind; so the exercises are always adjustable to your level and you’re always strongly encouraged to take it at your own pace - I mean, we’re not called My Pace for nothing! How to find us: We meet and train behind the calisthenics workout station on the Zirkuswiese of the Prater. Here a link to the location on Google maps: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/QdRPEaYTiavZbmVW7](https://maps.app.goo.gl/QdRPEaYTiavZbmVW7) Cost: In the interest of inclusivity, we've decided to make our sessions donations based here, so you're invited to pay what you can afford. If that actually makes you more uncomfortable and doesn't make it easier to come, know that we've received donations from €2 to €20 and they all made us very happy, because our primary goal is to get people moving and to show them it can be fun all in all. The money is secondary. One other thing that’s useful to know: - In the case of bad weather, we do have a back-up location that will protect us from the rain. Should we need to move, we will change the location of this event here. Please feel free to check back here before any event where you suspect bad weather or, even better, simply get in touch with us! We’re available via WhatsApp message (+436802355041) or email (office@mypace.at). If you'd like to know more about My Pace, feel free to visit our website at [https://www.mypace.at](https://www.mypace.at)

In this talk, Tobias will present the key findings of the PwC x PMI Study 2025, which examines the state of agility in Austrian companies. We will look at how organizations understand agility today, the main barriers to scaling it, the rise of hybrid models, and the (still limited) role of AI in agile work. Attendees will leave with a clear picture of where Austrian companies stand — and what separates those who use Agile methods from those who truly live Agility!

in-and out of Heustadelwasser
Dear friends, On Heustadelwasser in the Prater wetlands, most of the hike is shadowy, which is more comfortable in summer for humans, as we are. The animals in this area, don't care about so much and so we hope to see mandarin- and wood-ducks, various butterflys like the silver-washed fritillary and with a lot of luck, we can see the kingfisher flying there. Please come to our meeting point : **U2 station Stadion at 10:00** Hoping to meet you again in good health I look forward to next Wednesday best regards Adi Liebe Freunde, Am Heustadelwasser in den Praterauen liegt fast der ganze Spazierweg im Schatten, was es für uns Menschen in der Sommerhitze schon viel angenehmer macht. Die Tiere, die dort leben, kümmern sich weniger um die Temperatur, darum hoffen wir Mandarin-und Brautenten zu sehen, Schmetterlinge wie den Kaisermantel und mit viel Glück den Eisvogel, der vorbeifliegt. **Unser Treffpunkt ist die U-2 Station Stadion um 10:00** Ich freue mich euch bei guter Gesundheit wieder zu sehen Schöne Grüße Adi

talkin' vienna #84 - Radical Honesty
talkin' vienna #84 - Radical Honesty
How honest are we really — with others and with ourselves? Is there something as too much honesty? What are the pros and cons of being honest? How honest do you think you are? After some reflection and exploring key concepts about mindfulness and respectful communication we'll practice honesty through different exercises together. Expect a safe and welcoming atmosphere, light humor, practical communication tools, and space for both speaking and silent reflection. Come as you are — no skills or prior experience needed. \*\*\* If you RSVPed and your plans change, please update your status, to give others from the waitlist a chance. They really wanna join! 🤩 \*\*\* talkin' is an event series focusing on personal development and social adventures, hosted by amateurs and non-professionals. Every participant has the chance to lead their own talkin' event! We believe that the best way to grow as a person is to go out of your comfort zone, and have fun along the way. You don't think that's possible? Come and join us and see for yourself! The English speaking group invites internationals in Vienna, but also Austrians who enjoy speaking English. We are a group of people who organize monthly Social Adventures, everyone is free to join. This event will be held in English, please respect each other and speak English only. German events will be organized in the future as well. ### 📢 **Stay Updated** Join our Telegram to keep up with all upcoming events: 👉 **t.me/czc_vienna**

Greifenstein Panorama Hike and Optional Picnic & Swim
Greifenstein Panorama Hike and Optional Picnic & Swim
Hi everyone, On Sunday, June 28, 2026, I'm planning a scenic hike from Greifenstein to Redlingerhütte and back through the beautiful northern Wienerwald. This hike combines forest trails, panoramic viewpoints above the Danube, and a relaxed social atmosphere with plenty of time for conversation, short breaks, and enjoying nature together. For anyone who would like to extend the day, there will be the optional opportunity after the hike to relax at the nearby Danube backwater (Donaualtarm), with a picnic and a swim. **Hike Details** **Distance:** approximately 12 km **Elevation gain:** approximately 450 m **Walking time:** around 4 hours **Difficulty:** easy to moderate **Required fitness:** suitable for anyone comfortable walking for several hours on forest trails and paths Route information: [https://www.bahn-zum-berg.at/wienerwald/von-greifenstein-zur-redlinger-huette/](https://www.bahn-zum-berg.at/wienerwald/von-greifenstein-zur-redlinger-huette/) ### Optional After-Hike Picnic & Swim After returning to Greifenstein, anyone who still feels energetic is welcome to join for an informal picnic and a swim at the nearby Danube backwater (Donaualtarm). If you would like to stay, please bring your own snacks, drinks, picnic blanket, and swimming gear. This is a completely optional part of the day and a nice opportunity to relax by the water after the hike. There is also a local restaurant near the Danube where snacks and drinks can be purchased. **Metting Point & Travel** **Meeting time:** 08:20 in front of Bahnhof Heiligenstadt, exit 12.-Februar-Platz. **Please buy your own ticket before boarding the train** and arrive on time. We will take the **S40 at 08:42** from Bahnhof Heiligenstadt to **Greifenstein-Altenberg/Donau**. The train ticket costs approximately **€2.90 per direction**. **What to bring** • Sturdy hiking shoes with good grip • Weather-appropriate clothing • 1.5–2 litres of water • Snacks and/or lunch • Sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen) • Swimming gear and towel (optional) **What to expect** We will walk together at a relaxed and social pace and stay as a group throughout the day. This is not a race or a performance hike. As long as you have the basic fitness required for this route, the focus is on enjoying nature, good conversations, and spending time outdoors with fellow hikers. We will take regular short breaks whenever useful. We do not plan to stop at huts or restaurants during the hike itself, so please bring your own food and enough water for the day. Weather conditions can change quickly, so basic rain protection is recommended. Please wear proper hiking shoes and bring adequate sun protection, especially if warm and sunny weather is forecast. Toilet facilities are available on the train and in Greifenstein-Altenberg/Donau before and after the hike. **Important note** ⚠️**Disclaimer:** As always, this is a free, private leisure activity. I am not a certified hiking guide, and participation is entirely at your own responsibility and risk. I will send a weather update on Friday evening to everyone who has registered. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Looking forward to sharing this hike with you! Jörg
