This is exactly how I did it. I kept them in the coop for 3 days as well. But, in my hurry to get them to go out into the run I was actually pushing them out in the morning. In the evening I had to put them back as well because they would bunch together in the run at sundown.
After a couple of days, I decided that I would open the pop door and wait them out. It took 4 hours, but they did come out. In the evening I turned on a light and, sure enough, they returned at dusk. I only used the light one night. I used an inexpensive push light from WalMart.
