Yesterday I noticed that when I turn on the car it struggles to turn on, like it wants to die. Once it turns on it idles fine and everything is normal.
I checked plugs and they checked out ok, they have close to 3k miles.
The wires are a year old and about maybe 10-12k miles.

Is this a symptom of a dying battery?
 
Does it turn over slowly if so then yes, head over to a local parts store and have them test it for you, most any place can/will do it for free.
