Default Too much power steering fluid.

Hi,
I was topping off the power steering fluid and put ina too much, about a cup more than I should have (Thats a lot, if you go by the max-min markings on the power steering reservoir). I have no choice but the use the car for about 50miles before I get to a point where I can suck some out of the reservoir. How much of a mess is this, what exactly happens to the excess fluid? Any info is appreciated. Thanks

No problem unless you didn't use OEM or Pentosyn 11 fluid.
