Marathon Training Slow Down

I am taking it easy this week. I ran 2.6 miles on Tuesday and 4.6 miles on Wednesday. Took Thursday and Friday off. Well, Thursday was karate, but no running. Today I am supposed to go run, but don't know if I will or not. Tomorrow is a long run, but we are hiking a 14-er. I think we are doing Evans. Does that replace an 8 mile run? :)
