I know runners that would race the 5k and then keep running until they get in their mileage.
I also know people that run the remainder of the miles later in the day.
What I did was move my long-run to midweek so that I could do an event over the weekend. I actually enjoyed getting up early and starting my long-run at 5 AM before the work day started, but I know not everyone can do that.
