I've done marathon pulls in the past. Non stop from Bristol TN to Houston. Houston to Walsenburg CO. Just got back last Sunday from a easy non stop from Tulsa. Driven up 287 a lot.
A bit of self psych analysis...if I have a "job" to do, I want to do it. In this case the job is to get to Richmond VA. I'm hoping the Trace Parkway will force me to slow it down. Maybe avoiding interstates will help.
Speaking of 287...one of my bucket items is to drive 287 from the south end to Glacier NP. If not this year, next.
Thanks for y'alls help with the self analysis.
