Ok, I have a 48lb 6 year old and a 24lb 13 month old. Do you think it would be too heavy to jog with in your opinion?

No I don't think so. The shocks on this thing are great. It will be harder to turn because it's hard to turn anyway since the front wheel is locked. As far as just pushing it though it's very easy.

The stroller itself is light but this version does not have the swivel on the front wheel. So it's hard to turn. Doable, but more of a workout. I didn't know this when I purchased it. I use it to push my 2 kids who are 55lbs combined and I do fine. And I just am a light runner.

Thank you. He is tall but I can just put the canopy back if needed. He doesn't care. He just wants to come with me when I jog. Right now we have a single Bob and he gets a little jealous when I only take the baby so I'm hoping this will work for us. Thank for you input.

72lbs of weight...that's what i call a workout! The stroller can handle up to 100lbs of weight, but be sure to set the shocks to position 2 (51-100lbs)!!! As a warning the shocks reset to position 1 (up to 50lbs) every time the stroller is folded. The only problem I see is if you have to maneuver a lot. The fixed front wheel could be a pain if you need to make lots of turns. Otherwise...enjoy the push!

You can definitely feel the weight in it, but it still rides/pushes pretty smoothly. The extra weight just adds to your workout. :) I used it with a 41 lb 4 yr old and and 30 lb 2 yr old and it was fine.

I started on mine at 245lbs...it handled that ok...walking on an incline of 4...jogging, I have no experience with.

For an occasional brief run over smooth ground, it would be ok. But if you want to run every day, or several times a week, I would definitely get a jogging stroller. A proper jogger will roll more smoothly and absorb bumps better.

there are special things from baby jogger just for infants. Its like a bassenet. That would probably be your best option.

I have a five year old and a 2 1/2 yr old and although the weight isn't balanced I love this stroller; I haven't seen a better jogging stroller out there that would be a better fit for an older child. Height wise my 5 yr old is tall for her age but sitting up she still fits; lying down she usually curls up a little bit when she is sleeping but it still looks comfortable.

Yes I believe it to be sturdy enough to jog. It's just a bit loud, like a "bang" with every step so just make sure you are on a sturdy floor or a basement.

I would be very surprised if you could jog with this thing attached. Better to get a board that is easy stored in the up position. Or one that's easy to detach. It's rather weighty. Frankly, it's a pain, but I think that's just the nature of these things.

I would say if the child is more athletic as early as age 6 but 9-10 and up. My kids are 12 and 16 and love it!

Might be a tight fit. If he's a fast growing boy, you may only use the double jogger for one season at best. I have both the double Ironman and single - may I suggest just purchasing the single Ironman for when the newborn is ready to go out running with you?

Often in a hurry to plck up grandchildren from school, never had a problem with stroller with my 4 chihuahuas in it. Stroller is sturdy and strong. Dont know about jogging but wouldnt think there would be a problem.

My son is 26lbs and loves it. He is 29 inches, but has plenty of room height wise to grow. He is nearing the width, but not uncomfortable. He is only 8 months and a chunk, so if she is 32 lbs and taller/leaner it would work great. My son naps in it when we go too :) the only drawback is don't get gravel dust in the wheels. They never work the same again and stick after. Before we did that we loved it!

Hi, Yes love this as a jogger. I spent a month researching since these things are so expensive and have been very pleased with this model. You lock the front tire for jogging and it handles great. Absorbs bumps well too. I have a 26 lbs French bulldog and you end up with a great arm workout as an added bonus.

I have a 6 year old that weighs about 55 lbs and an 8 year old that go in it sometimes. They could probably use it for the next 2 years.

I believe it would work but also I use this for my three year old when I walk or jog. My daughter is pretty tall so her feel hang out at the bottom. I really like this jogging stroller.

I think it would be too small. I used it for a 9 month old who was barely crawling, but would not use it for my 13 month old who is 22 pounds and running.

I have this same jogger and I don't know how much it weighs exactly but I would say 38lbs sounds awfully heavy to me. I can load this with ease in and out of car, no problem. Babies R Us sells the same jogger only more money and in a different color but maybe you could check their site and see what they have for product weight.

No, not to heavy. My son was a little guy so it didn't quite work for him until he was about that size at a year a half. Should work perfectly for your twins
