For my baby registry, I put more time and thought into picking out my jogging stroller than any other item. If only I had a running sight to give me a advise rather than Babies R Us.
I ended up getting what I thought was a top of the line stroller (it sure came for a top of the line price). Only the best for me and my baby right?
Well, what I didn't realize was what it needed to be good at, running AND transporting. Now if all running meant for me was slipping into a pair of sneakers, buckling my baby into the stroller and off we go, this stroller would be perfect.
After all my BOB is incredibly light weight. I call it the Mercedes of the strollers. It comes with a variety of wonderful features, and for about sixty bucks a pop, I can order a whole bunch of accessories. But what it doesn't do well is fold up, and this makes the New York City bus drivers very unhappy, to say the least.
So to save you the frustration of going out and spending big money for a running stroller that seems to be perfect for everyone but you,
this jogging stroller review
takes all things into consideration. It is written by running moms for running moms and it will help you find the perfect stroller to fit your unique needs.
Some questions to take into consideration are: are you running with an infant or a toddler? Will this stroller be used only for running or for other activities as well? Are you running near your home, or will you need to transport this stroller to your running location. Should the front wheel
swivel or not?
These are just some of the questions to take into consideration, but not to be overwhelmed. It is all simplified in this
review
which is tailored to your individual preferences.
Once you have chosen the perfect running stroller, there are a couple of accessories, you might want to pick up as well.

I remember how proud I felt that first day I actually made it to the park with my stroller. Of course it took several tries, many errors and lots of observations of all the other running parents in the park - apparently running is a great
family sport
- before I'm finally starting to feel like a pro. Don't worry, you'll get there! ;-)
