XP per hour?
I'm planning on trying to hit level 39 this event which will require just under 1 million XP. I'm thinking that with the double XP plus lucky eggs I should be able to do about 100,000 per hour from just catching and hatching eggs. That's just an estimate so if anybody has more accurate numbers please share

Without lucky egg just catching and spinning I think 40.000 XP per hour is accurate depending on how many spawns you get. Catching a mon requires around 30 seconds if you get frequent spawns and you can catch one after another. Assuming perfect throws on every mon you get 520 xp per catch. That would mean a theoretical max of 520*120=62.400 XP. One spin between every mon would give you another 12.000, so 74.400 would be max in theory.
My "normal" goal before the event was 1.000.000 every 3 weeks, or 333.333 per week, which I was keeping pretty constant. 6 normal/casual days (Go+ in full motion) plus 1 heavy day (Saturday) at the local park with 2 lucky eggs, mass evolves (1 full 30 mins) and 2/3 legendary raids (at least 1 with a lucky egg on). With the current double XP and more spawn points, I figure getting 1M in 1 week should be pretty easy for you. I do not consider myself hard core nor a casual player. Just a very dedicated one. :-D
