Steps to Reproduce

Calling the method Interval with a cron job set to run every x minutes, starting at minute y, does not work.

var checkInId = _hub.CaptureCheckIn(monitorSlug, CheckInStatus.InProgress, configureMonitorOptions: options => {
    options.Interval("12/5 22 * * *");
});

The web-UI allows this syntax

Expected Result

The ability to set a cron interval that doesn't start with '*' but with any other number.
Valid crons:

• 12/5 22 * * *
• 0 2/4 * * *
• 1/5 2/4 * * *

Actual Result

The exception: System.ArgumentException: The provided crontab does not match the expected format of '* * * * *' translating to 'minute', 'hour', 'day of the month', 'month', and 'day of the week'. is thrown.
