I think maybe regional meets would be a little more reasonable.. I am on the east coast, and wouldnt want to go all the way to the west coast for a meet. I'm sure the west coasters would feel the same, and lets be honest... Nobody wants to go to the midwest.. lol, just kidding guys..
But in all reality, due to work and what not, I probably wouldnt be able to do anything more than about an 8 hr drive tops thanks to a crazy work schedule.. It is hard enough for me to even get a full weekend..
