Welcome to Run On Carry On, a blog dedicated to the intersection of travel and training.

To be transparent, we are two working professionals with two salaries and no kids (DINK – Dual Income No Kids) so we are able to prioritize travel within our overall family budget. We make our travel budget go a little further as Patrick likes to “churn” and leverage credit card travel perks as well. While international travel is our main focus, we found a love of domestic road trips during 2020. Our primary goals are to travel to far flung areas while we are young (Nepal, South East Asia, etc.) and save more of the “easy” travel places for when we are older and have more responsibilities.
