My PF-01s typically lasted two-three weekends (8-12 hours) plus a few thousand street miles. This is dependant on how far down you are willing to wear the pads. I'd say I'm less than half thickness after 8 hours.
You shouldn't run track pads to less than 30 percent of original thickness. They start transferring more heat to the calipers when they get thin.
