    I have NO idea why you have stuck around with those kind of miles?!?!
    If I ever got less than 2500 two weeks in a row, I would lose my mind!
    I had 4 days last month where I moved less than 200 miles, and still got 10888, and that was a slow month for me!

    You are a trainer, that's why you get more miles.

    Platinum, I've averaged around the 3k mark per week since I started at May. When I was solo I would stay out longer periods which drove my average up. As a trainer, I make it a point to get home every 2 weeks, or sooner when I can, as well as do more 34 hr restarts, spending a little of my bounty at a nice hotel for the weekend and what not.

    I don't know why your average is where it is. I have a good friend that is dispatched out of Pensacola too, he told me that last year he ran right at 140k miles, and he's not a trainer.
