A former pro whose seminar I attended recommended doing the long run on Saturday. He said as amateurs, we are simply not strong enough (and risk hurting ourselves running on weak, tired legs) to take the run on top of the bike if you do the bike on Sat. You decide if that is true for you.

I don't have a definite answer to the alternative - long run during the week.
