If I'm doing 6-7 miles a day for the next four days, split into two/three runs, is that too much?

No as long as your body is accustomed to that much and you aren't going to be running yourself into the dirt by doing so.0

So long as you don't increase your runs by more than 10% on a week over week basis, you should be ok. Also, don't put intense workouts on back to back days as you need time to recover (Speed workout followed by a tempo workout the next day). You will increase the risk of injury plus lose any benefits these workouts give you.0
