My chain is cleaned thoroughly and re- lubed religiously every week (I do so many miles that I have to) Every week it looks like new (Gleaming)
Believe me you don't want a broken chain diving into your rear wheel at 70mph - it tends to kill you. That's why I am so structured about it.
My new DID X Ring chain has now done 6000 miles and it looks new (and never needs adjustment either because I look after it so well)
In fact I believe I might be able to get 20000 miles out of it?!
P.S. Sorry Wes I wouldn't advise lightweight Renthals - too soft (they'll be shot in a very short period of time) - I was speaking with someone recently who only got a couple of thousand miles out of them!
