Greetings!

Depending on Jimmy's current athletic state (is he healthy or not?) he may only need one month to prepare for the race. 

How he should eat:

Jimmy should eat healthy (fruits + vegetables), and he should make sure to drink lots of water.

He should avoid eating/drinking things that may have a lot of sugar and carbohydrates. This includes things like - unhealthy chips, sodas, treats, etc.

How he should exercise:

Some of the basic exercises he can do is -

*Jogging/running everyday

*A simple sets of stretches

*Push ups, pull ups, sit ups, etc.

Again, this would be an everyday thing, (until the race).

Hope this helps you!
