The correct answer is B. Jogging 2 miles in 19 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A short-term fitness goal refers to a goal or objective that can be achieved after a short time or after a few attempts, which means it is an objective of the ear future. This differs from long-term fitness goals because these take more time, more attempts and involve a set of steps. Additionally, specific fitness goal usually aims at being able to do a specific exercise or task, for example, walking a certain distance or winning a competition.

Considering this, the one that is an example of a short-term fitness goal is "Jogging 2 miles in 19 minutes" because this can be achieved after a short time (a day, week, month or few months) and does not require a lot of steps; also this is specific as others such as "having more energy" or "increasing strength" are part of long processes and are general.
