In August I drove from Toronto, Ontario to Edmonton, Alberta, via
Buffalo, Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Fargo, and Regina. That's
about 2300 miles, and I did it by myself in under 48 hours, including
roughly 5 hours of visiting with friends along the way, and 4 hours
of sleep.
When I arrived in Edmonton, I hopped into a different car with two
friends and drove to Phoenix, Arizona via Salt Lake City, in about
27 hours. That's about 1900 miles.
In total, I went 4200 miles in 75 consecutive hours, with me driving
for 60 of these hours. A new record?

Addendum: As of Jan. '95, I still haven't heard of anyone doing a more insane
trip than this one.
