Are you gliding when you touch down?

Ok, I am CFI, I have been flying about 16 years and have been a CFI for
about 8 years and have over 3000 hrs total with nearly 2000 hrs of
instruction given..

My thinking was, as an instructor I may be spending up to 60 hours per
week in the traffic pattern doing takeoffs and landings.

Whoa Brian, you need to slow down:

61.195 Flight instructor limitations and qualifications.
A person who holds a flight instructor certificate is subject to the
following limitations:

(a) Hours of training. In any 24-consecutive-hour period, a flight
instructor may not conduct more than 8 hours of flight training.
