Double checking a co-workers investing advice

I'm finally at a point financially where I can start investing. I'll have $500/month to invest. My coworker, who seems to be somewhat knowledgeable, recommended putting 20% into each of the following. She said it was a good balance.

FZROX

FITLX

FGRIX

FDGFX

FSGGX

Would anyone be kind enough to provide insight into what her thought process is on these?

This will be for retirement. I don't have a 401k at my job. I will be getting a pension, so this would be to supplement it. 38 years old.
