One possible version:
We'll have to take the PE test in a month. But it is a big problem for me because I can't run fast enough. I must improve it. So I made a plan. Every morning I run in the playground. I ran slowly at the beginning. But soon I could run a little faster. Now I can run much faster. I am proud of myself. I'm sure I will pass the PE test at last.
