Baseball: November 2008 Archives

Bolingbrook Bandits 12U manager Thomas Page returns for the 10th week of his journal for The Brook Blog. Page is attempting to lost 50 pounds before Jan. 22, 2009 to improve his health and raise money for his youth baseball team.

Well we are feeling better and now back from the Great White North, the UP of Michigan. Unsuccessful hunt but wonderful trip to say the least.

I have been very successful in my weigh loss goal so far, 25 pounds, and it is definitely getting easier to work out. It was easier to keep up this year with my friends while walking in deep snow and forest.

I am now going to increase my work outs with Angel about 3 times per week. I have 2 months left on my trek and its going to go by very quickly.

This is the eighth week of the journal Thomas Page is writing for The Brook Blog about his attempt to lose 50 pounds before Jan. 22, 2009. Page is losing weight to improve his health and raise money for his Bolingbrook Bandits 12U team.

Well, we have been sick this week. I was able to work out once with Angel but only twice for cardio. We have the flu. I am trying to encourage my oldest son to work with me and continue his work out that he was doing for cross country. I find it has been a challenge all in its own. He too seems to have hit a rut.

I will be leaving next week for my annual trek up north to the UP of Michigan. I was enjoying fitting into my hunting clothes. I will even have to go shopping when I come home. My pants are just too loose which is a problem I actually enjoy having I must say.
