Off I set this morning on the treadmill at work for a nice leisurely run, it was all going so well, right up until I got called out to an incident, I’ve been really lucky that this hasn’t happened up until now when I run at work, so I was 20 mins in (this includes the 5 min warm up) do I take this as “a run” I really didn’t feel I’d pushed myself, as I said it was supposed to be a leisurely one today, should I maybe have another go in the morning and hope I don’t get called out again or leave it until the weekend when I’m off duty?

I’d take it as a nice short run. They don’t all have to be 30 minutes to tick a box, and not all short runs need to be tempo or speed sessions, far from it.
