Just wondering if the altitude training benefit is instantaneous upon returning to sea level or if I need to get back to sea-level a few days or more before the race? Thanks!

I would recommend 3 days to adapt to the new atmosphere/recover a bit before the race. If it's a week or more before the race you are likely to lose what you gained at altitude.
Good luck,
