What to do when you want to run but you know you shouldn't

I have only 7 running miles logged this week... and I feel so down..!  I tell you, if I am not running I feel sick.  I did a 40 mile bike ride last Saturday and felt really good and took Sunday off as a rest day.  Monday rolled around and I decided to go for a run.  I felt lead in my legs for some reason and just was not feeling the run.  I ended up doing 7 miles with one of my worst paces in a while 12:13...!  I joined this website about a month ago that I definitely like and it motivates me when I am not feeling the run.  It is http://DailyMile.com so check it out if you are an athlete and friend me at http://www.dailymile.com/people/rodeubanks if you decide to join.  I have a little pain in my left foot and it seems to be Plantar Fictitious so I have been resting this week because I know I need too based on the pain.  I will definitely up my miles soon so I can be happy again LOL 8)  So the question is "What to do when you want to run but you know you shouldn't???" ummm REST, RELAX, REHABILITATE, and get in on some R&R (Rest and Recuperation).... How will I do that you may ask... well tomorrow I am going to the 3rd largest BBQ competition at Sea World San Antonio only a walk away from my house.... http://www.mysanantonio.com/entertainment/music/article/Get-your-smokers-stoked-2683868.php
