Is jogging a gerund participle or infinitive in the sentence Daily is good way to build strength and stamina?

The word "jogging" in the sentence "Daily jogging is a good way to build strength and stamina" is a gerund.

Here's why:

* Gerunds are verb forms ending in "-ing" that function as nouns. They can be the subject, object, or complement of a sentence. In this case, "jogging" is the subject of the sentence.

* Participles are verb forms ending in "-ing" or "-ed" that function as adjectives. They describe nouns. "Jogging" isn't describing a noun in this sentence.

* Infinitives are verb forms preceded by "to" (e.g., "to jog"). This sentence doesn't have an infinitive.
