I know he drove hard in order to make his last drop on Friday and we had not planned on him getting a load until Monday. He is glad that he was kept moving and did not have to sit the weekend out.

I can't recall if he's heading home for a few days, but if he's not that may have been a good time for a 34 hour restart. Get a fresh 70 and push hard after reload.
I was took a load of nursery stock from Oregon to some home centers in Indiana, and Ohio. I pushed extra hard and got to Indy about 36 hours before my first drop. Perfect. No need to beg for early delivery. I reset and was able to deliver then push hard again.
This is something to consider when on the road. Physically, you can't run hard week after week. It's not healthy. Some weeks it's good to take it easy. Mentally and physically.
