Beginning a routine

Yesterday was the first full day of the summer of self-improvement, so let me try this summary format for updating and see how you all like it.

Mu's goals:
Fitness: See mutual goals below
Language: Mu has learned how to say "good morning!"
Dance: None so far, but he's taking a class soon!

Elaine's goals:
Fitness: See mutual goals
Language: Nothing at all...
Cooking: Nothing today -- my mom made tons of food for our arrival, so there's no point in making more.
Writing: Also nothing, which I think will be the case until I return from my conference next week.

Mutual goals:
C25K: Today was a "rest" day, but we walked around downtown for about 75 minutes, so we felt like we got some exercise -- nearly 4 miles of slow walking.  We've both been weirdly sore, I didn't think 5 minutes of jogging was going to affect us so much!
Sleep: Got up at 8am, as I mentioned yesterday.  It was a little rough and we both felt slow for a while, but we managed.  We both really wanted a nap, but by the time we got really sleepy, it was after 3pm (the recommended cut-off time for a daytime nap not to interfere with nighttime sleep), so we refrained.  Mu managed to go to bed on time, but I stayed up a little late.
Food: We've decided that with all the amazing summer fruit here, fruit is an exception to the "little to no snacks" rule -- we want to eat a good amount of it, and we don't always want to include it with a meal, and it's a healthier snack than most. So we had fruit throughout the day.  Our meals were also a little wonky -- we had breakfast and lunch as usual, but then we had cocktails and small munchies as an early dinner, and another small munchie as second dinner?  I don't know.  Not quite on a schedule, but at least it didn't feel like too much food.

Activities: Socialized with friends, explored a new-to-us restaurant -- Taverna Aventine. 

All in all, a decent start.  I think we'll both need to figure out how to schedule time for all the different things, but not bad so far.
