Sounds like a healthy pool of genes  

Off topic: That's pretty normal for germans these days though. Germany is located in central Europe and has always had high immigration from other european countries. Especially Poland and after WW2 from Turkey as well. It's really hard these days to find germans without *some* kind of immigration background in their family. Unfortunately half the country still lives in some sort of delusional state and keeps denying this - because most people are (the irony!) so well integrated into society that you don't even realize their parents are from another country unless you dig deeper and ask them. Personally, I live 5 minutes from the french border and about 20 minutes from switzerland so it's pretty normal in our region to have lots of french, italian or swiss people around here... So as for aikohualda's claim: All europeans look the same confirmed? (Ok that was a lot of off-topic stuff...)

And on topic: I go jogging twice per week and do exercising about once per week currently. I'm planning to get back into heavier training though. Unfortunately university + work really took away a lot of time over the last months. 

so are you german-german?

Well, I think so. Part of my family's from East Prussia (which now belongs to Russia) and had to flee after the war ended. My mother's family has always lived at the french-german border (Alsace-Lorraine, the border region, often switched between being part of France and Germany and I have no idea which side of the river they originally came from) and my grand-grandmother was a Jew (don't know about her husband) but I don't know much about that as my father was adopted and doesn't like to talk about this. Let's just say my family's seen the wars from all kinds of different perspectives. So I guess I'm "german-german" in that sense but I generally despise the idea of "judging" people by their nationality or background in any way. It's our decisions in life that make us who we are, not where we come from. Nationalities are an over-simplified concept anyway. Europe's always had lots of immigration in the border-regions. The current clear-cut language-borders were created not too long ago as a result of war. (And again, that was a lot of off-topic stuff lol)
