Has it Been that Long?

I just got back to world of blogging (sigh) and looking at the date for my last posts it is long overdue (sigh again).
I started a new job and it has been consuming so much of the time I used to give to running, biking, working out, reading, etc. I hate to say it but my workouts have really taken the brunt of what this new position has required.
How do you fit it all in????
I signed up for the NF 50K and had to drop to the half marathon and then had to run it on NO training! I finished in a time that is acceptable to me, but was discouraged with the process leading up to that.
I am setting my sites on a 50K in December but hesitate only because I look at the last one and don't want that to happen again!
I am currently in a group fitness class 6 days a week and seem to get there 4-5 times a week. It is by class time and I have decided to give that up next month. I miss my running and my freedom to choose when I work out, although I ove the knowledge and teaching I can do with newbies in the program. I set a goal this year to complete my personal training certification and I will let guess when the last time I even picked up the book was (hint- we are no longer in that season).
Again- my question to you all...
How do you fit it in?
Tips on getting my motivation back?
Thanks so much!
