3 miles isn't really bad at all. Most people can't run that much. Start out doing as much as you can and then it slowly gets easier. Then slowly start trying to go a little further and before ya know it u'll be running 10 miles (or maybe not that much, haha).

I usually run at night. I get home from gym at like 8. How many days do you practice a week? I usually run on the weekends and wendesday which is my day off.

thats cool! 3 is probably enough. How far are you going to run each time?

3 days is fine especially since you have 25 hours of other workouts every week!
