1-2-3 long runs if 20-24 miles - each by themselves means very little to your ability to toe the line ready to run a marathon.

This comes from the accumulation of all your training, all your volume, all your medium and long runs. All your speed work.

18-20-22-24+ are all just numbers. 22 is fine, 20 is fine, 18 is fine as long as your total book of training accumulates to enough volume.
