So I know I am supposed to be going in order of my races, which means that this post should be about my races in Poznan.However, it is snowing outside and as the first snow of the season in Bydgoszcz, I feel I should mark the occasion.
Now coming from southern California, this is a big deal for me.Sure I have been to the mountains and hiked in the snow and have gone skiing.But now I am going to be living an everyday normal life surrounded by snow and all the cold that comes with it.
I have been greatly enjoying the weather here in Bydgoszcz.When I first got here, I caught the last moments of the summer and its warmth.Since then, each week has been getting colder and colder, which was marked by the color of the leaves as they changed from green to yellow and red.Now the last leaves are finally falling off the trees and today we have our first snow.
