When's the last time you ran? I know I can be really consistent for a while and then life gets crazy and I have a hard time getting my runs in.
My advice is to plan it into your calendar as you would anything. Amazingly, when you do that, it WILL happen. You'll feel better about your sport, your goals and yourself. Even if you don't have much time, do something.
I was getting nervous that I hadn't run any decent distance lately since I have a half marathon coming up soon. I looked at my week and said, tomorrow I have two hours so that's what I'll do. Sure enough, it was in my calendar and today it happened. I ran 9 miles this am. It was a beautiful morning, clear skies and sunny.
Don't beat up on yourself that you haven't had the time. Just prioritize your runs as something for yourself within your week as a whole. You'll be glad you did!
