Riding 400+ miles in four days.

I will be riding in four weeks with a group about 100 miles each for four days.
Am i prepared enough?
So far about 1300 miles for the year with a long ride of 50-70 miles each weekend.
The pace is mostly fast group rides around 20mph average or solo around 17.5
The tour will be more around a 15-16 mph pace. My concern is mostly daily "time in the saddle" and recovery.
Should i keep my riding the same or ride with a slower group to get used to the pace for the next three weeks?
I have done a century each the last three years finishing stronger each year.
I plan on paying close attention to stay well hydrated.
Thanks for any suggestions.
