Looking for advice on half marathon prep!

Hi! Feel free to delete if this isn't allowed, but I was looking for some advice on how I should prep the two days before my half.

I just graduated from undergrad last weekend, so I didn't run for five days about five days before my half because my family was in town (my half is on Saturday, I did not run from Wednesday through Sunday, then I ran 2 miles on Monday, 4 on Tuesday, and 6 yesterday).

I ran 11 miles about a week and a half ago, and a 10 mile and an 8 mile the week before that with mid-distance runs dispersed throughout the rest of the week.

I know you're usually supposed to have a rest day and a shakeout run the day before, but would you change up that plan based on this situation? This is my first half and I'm hoping the five days off won't set me back too far. Thank you in advance!
