Welcome to the world of mileage running. I've only done a few out and back same day runs. Most of mine have involved an overnight with friends. I've done a few from DCA to the west coast, have dinner with friends and then come back on the red-eye.

My best were a few years ago when NW published a fare that allowed an east coast to Europe routing via HNL and/or ANC for less than $500 rt. I did two of these, each started in BWI, one was to AMS by way of HNL both ways (doubling back, not RTW) the second to LON by way on HNL outbound and HNL and AMS on the return. Almost 25,000 miles each.

Will this get you to Plat for the year?
