Is it a good jogging stroller? I owned the bob revolution with my first child but want to know if this will be a good jogging stroller for two kids.

Nathan, I really recommend this stroller, it is easy to carry and fold, my kids like it because the seats can flip backwards or forwards. I am very satisfied with this stroller because I can go where I want to go with it. Sure you can use it for running, it worked for me and my kids enjoy the ride.

The Baby Jogger City Select stroller is NOT intended to be used for jogging.

I've done some light jogging with it, but I wouldn't call it a everyday jogging stroller. It doesn't have trail tires and the maneuverability isn't what I would want it I wanted to job with it all the time. Mostly I do a lot of really long walks, mall and zoo trips, etc.

This stroller worked well for us and I had children similar ages. Make sure you measure the back of the vehicle you plan to travel in. It is a very long stroller. It fit in the back of our suburban, but it was leaned diagonally and propped on the window ledge. Also, it is a bit difficult to steer. I didn't mind that much because it was lightweight and narrow. It's a good choice for a family with a baby and two toddlers. We didn't have Amy trouble selling it when didn't need it any longer. I hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi Kelly!The owners manual doesn't recommend running with an infant until 8 months of age. We waited until our child could sit up by herself at 6 months before just using the stroller by itself.I'm not sure of your situation but, the best set-up would be a Bob Stroller with a Britax adaptor and Britax car seat for the first 6 months. After that you would just use the stroller by itself. The stroller is awesome, we used it for walking around stores when she was a newborn in her car seat and now we run with her in the stroller. It's definitely worth the money, especially of you plan on having another kid. Hope that helps! If you have any more questions feel free to ask!

I did in the beginning - when I was fast walking and light jogging - As I got more into running & my daughter got older (18 months) I then got a Bob running stroller (for about $300) strictly for exercising. Hope this helps.

The jogger stroller is a little bit bulky. The 3 wheels do easily disconnect (with the push of a button) and easily re-connect (just push / snap into place), which makes more compact and easier to transport. I'm think the stroller would fit into the corolla trunk if you pop the wheels off. With that said, I would NOT consider this a "light weight easy to manage stroller". What we did is purchase this set (jogger stroller and carseat) and we also purchased the "frame stroller" -&gt; Graco SnugRider Elite Stroller & Car Seat Carrier (http://www.amazon.com/Graco-SnugRider-Elite-Stroller-Carrier/dp/B008OIPZW8/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1408646069&sr=1-1&keywords=graco+frame+stroller). We are glad we did - get the best of both worlds. - The "frame stroller" is super light weight and compact - we keep this in my wife's car trunk all the time and use it whenever we are around town (I.e. grocery shopping, dining, etc). - We use the jogger stroller when going on walks from home, or when we want something more heavy duty (I.e. going to an amusement park, going to the beach, or just about anything that is a longer all-day adventure). Now that our daughter is getting a little bit older / bigger (15 months) she really enjoys sitting in the jogger stroller without the carseat (prefers it greatly over sitting in the carseat). Hope that helps...

The backs of the Bob strollers are not completely upright but I have never found that to be a problem. I wouldn't trade my single or double for any other jogging stroller.

The only running I have done with the City Mini is across car-parks to make my kids burst out laughing. You can swerve about a little doing this and stay on all three wheels, but as Midori has suggested, you wouldn't find this stable enough for decent runs for exercise purposes. One little bump and you would likely topple.For that, you should look up the Baby Jogger Summit XC or another larger stroller. Unfortunately, you have to then also put up with the bigger size factor and the extra cost.I would still recommend a Baby Jogger product based purely on the fantastic folding mechanism.

Absolutely. I began using the stroller with my 2 month old, for walking only. I started jogging when he was 4 months. I think the recommendation is 6 months, so go for it!

I wouldn't use it for jogging....it's not stable enough. My son would not sit on it while walking because it was "wobbly"...I'm afraid it may not stand up to jogging. Those wheels are small and low which doesn't work well with "speed"

I have the Bob Revolution and it works fine. We have both, the infant and toddler sizes. The toddler one we used for my daughter from 9months to 16 months. My other daughter is 7 months and 18 pounds and the infant one fits her fine. Its more of the legnth you need to worry about, thats what my daughter out grew first. I might go with the toddler size since your probably only going to use the infant one for a few months more and then need the next bigger size.

I've jogged with it but it's not designed as a 'real' jogging stroller. We do have a jogging stroller and the regular graco stroller that we got as a travel system w the car seat snd I'll tell you that both of those are in the basement except this mini. We love it. It's lightweight and so easy to operate. We took it to Mexico when our little one turned 1. We didn't have to check it in, again, because it's so light it's considered a lightweight stroller but it's also sturdy and much better quality that most 'umbrella' strollers. We love it and we have no complaints. Oh and it is very much easy to transition from infant to toddler.

There's a different Bob's stroller for rugged ground ~ it has thicker tires. This is a pavement jogging stroller.

I could see some LIGHT jogging with this stroller. It is great for hauling 2 little ones around and getting in doorways. It is comfortable for the kids and even fits in the TSA scanner. It is heavy though and would have a hard time on rough terrain.

No this stroller is not meant for jogging. It's ok on dirt. You'd probably want a double Bob if you want to jog and or hike

It was amazing!! I put my heaviest in the front seat and it's soooo smooth! I usually jog with my Bob but with three littles during the day I needed something for all!! Very pleased with this stroller!!

We push our city select all over, hills included. It handles really well and feels like a smooth ride. I have not tried jogging with it as I have heard it is not ideal for jogging from a couple of girlfriends with the same stroller. We do walk fast with it with no trouble.
