Drop strength training to 1 day/week, and try to get at least 3 days/week of CO work. CO work responds to frequency moreso than even strength. Usually, with endurance athletes, 3 days/week is the bare minimum they can get by with for just maintenance. You can also do some aerobic work during rest intervals within strength workouts as active recovery (i.e. jump roping, shadow boxing, light medicine ball stuff, etc.). Maybe you can try to get your kids to go out on a jog with you, if they're old enough.
