I'm no investing wizard, but VWINX seems to badly underperform compared to the Vanguard target retirement date funds (and lots of other funds too).
I was basing my recommendation off the OP's listed risk profile. When I initially started my Roth, it was also my emergency savings so I lowered my risk level. Once my Roth balance grew enough, I shifted to a more aggressive posture. Like I mentioned in my comment.

I went with the suggestions in this article

I didn't use the bond fund. Instead I added an extra 5% to each of the other funds.
Its been doing well. The mid and small caps have been lagging. russell 2000 has been down recently
