As an umpire, this really shouldn't be new for you. If observant, you should be able to tell if the runner is going to return or is satisfied where they are. Personally, I simply watch the runner's reaction and listen for a coach's instructions. If the runner is still moving, I wait for them to complete their running tasks. If there is no indication the runner is going to return by the time I've scanned the situation, I'm announcing my ruling.
that works for me
