Is this normal?
My bike has 175 miles on it so it's still going through break in but I noticed that the kick stand doesn't need much effort anymore to push out, and if I push it hard like I used to it just bounces back (but not all the way back up). Also my rear brake pedal seems to require less effort to press now. Should I be concerned about these things?

RE: Is this normal?
The brake pedal... if it has the same travel and stopping the bike the same I wouldn't worry about it. It is probably more of you getting use to it. If not... then take it in for service.
The kickstand... if it's not operating to all extents of it's travel and operating as it should, then there must be a problem. It may be as simple as some kind of debris lodged in there somewhere or a malfunctioning part, maybe even some lubrication would help... In any event, if couldn't figure it out, then I would take it in for service...
