Better planning and more discipline would have helped to get at least one more run in, but bottom line is adding runs last week would have added stress to an already stressful week. Running is suppose to relieve stress not create it. So last week I chose differently. I chose to spend the few extra minutes I had away from work with the kids or maybe sleeping. Not throwing on my running clothes to shoe horn a run in between meetings or after the kids went to bed.
That is not always the right decision... but last week it was. I know this because I've gotten right back on track. Both scheduled runs so far this week have been completed. I feel happy and refreshed. I know in the future I will have to run when I don't want to, but once in a while you need to create space to breathe.
