3 Mile Benchmark.

I added about half a mile of warm-up with some dynamic stretching.  I wasn't sure how I'd do, since I missed a little last week from being sick.  I felt like I was running faster--I knew I was running hard, but wasn't sure how fast.  It's too dark to read my watch and see my pace--especially when trying to run fast.  I just figured I'd run as hard as I could and just see what that is when I was done.  I made significant improvement on every split.
