Anyone done 11 hrs driving non-stop?

I have done it and its hard on the body to be in that seat for that long.

 

I usually do it twice a week, Minot to Edmonton, unload sleep then back to Minot. I keep an electric cooler with food and water on the sleeper floor within reach.

 

We do it all the time....Stockton, CA to Portland, OR.....piece of cake!

You get used to it actually! Splitting a measly 605 miles in 2 days takes away from home time!

 

I did it once, but it wasn't planned. I wanted to stop at a Pilot to get a $1 soda. Next thing I know it's almost 10 hrs so I just kept going. Usually, I drink a lot of liquids so I stop real quick after about 4-5 hrs.

 

It's very hard on the body and mind, take your breaks.

 

I've done it before a couple of times. A convo with my GF will make those hours fly by and before I know it, the qualcomm is nagging at me due to my HOS being low.

 

Not if you exercise regularly. 20 minutes of sit-ups, push-ups, pull-ups and crunches in the morning followed by 20 minutes at night and your body can handle it. Eating healthy makes a difference also.

 

Just make sure you don't miss your exit while exercising.

 

What do you think cruise control is for?
