A sample
As we all know, regular jogging is of great significance to our physical health, but it is difficult for us to stick to it. From my point of view, jogging to your favourite music is a good idea, which may help you enjoy yourself while jogging. You’ll easily lose yourself in your favourite music and forget about the pain.
Use the ideas in your discussion to list some positive changes.
