Iron Butt is impressive, for sure. I'd probably go insane trying to lay down that many miles in that amount of time.
Don't you get to the point where you're just droning along to make the goal? Do you still get to enjoy the ride, or do you spend your time pissing in a bottle on the road so you don't have to stop? |

As for pissing in a bottle? Totally not necessary. LOL. I can/have done 1000 miles in 14 hours. That's easy. Having said that, it *is* mental. My first 1000 mile day took me 22 hours and kicked my ass. Now, 14 hours and I'm ready to go another few hundred miles if necessary. Just have to train yourself for it, much like anything else.
