7 days challenge

I want to jog one hour each day in a whole week!

I did it few weeks ago.

This week I start the same challenge again.

But jogging the same road will be so boring.

So, I change the locations and time respectively.

It is the fifth day now and I got two more days to finish this challenge.

At the beginning my ideal of set up such challenge is to improve my body shape.

Actually, there isn’t much change of my body shape.

I didn’t look cool (as always).

But that didn’t upset at all.

The question for me now is how long I can keep this habit.

I want to jog one hour each day infor a whole week!

This week I started the same challenge again.

But jogging the same road willould have been so boring.

Since you are talking in the present about a hypothetical situation in your past, I think "would have been" sounds the most natural.
A poor explanation:
- "Will be so boring" sounds like the situation hasn't happened yet, but will happen in the future.
- "Would be so boring" sounds like the situation hasn't happened yet, but you imagine that such a situation would be boring.
- "Would have been" sounds like the situation hasn't happened, and you have prevented it from happening/prevented the conditions that would cause it to be boring.

So, I changed the locations and time respectively.

It is the fifth day now and I've got two more days to finish this challenge.

You can also say "I've got two more days to go." (natural, casual)

At the beginning my ideal of set upreason for starting such challenge iwas to improve my body shape.

Since you are thinking in the present about your reasoning/idea in the past ("at the beginning", "was" is more grammatical than is.

Actually, there isn’thasn't been much change ofin my body shape.

"there isn't" is also OK, but this sounds a bit more natural to me.

I didon’t look cool (as always).

But that didn’oesn't upset me at all.

Feedback

Great work on keeping up the habit for 5 days! Hope you can reach your goal of 7 days -- and beyond.

I am also trying to be more active. I have done yoga 4 days in a row so far. Let's keep up the good work :)
