Can I run with this stroller? I want to have morning runs and want to make sure this stroller is made for that.

Baby's not born yet, so have not tried. But it does not appear to be designed for running (it has small wheels). Hope that helps.

yes, my son is a runner and ran a 5k with his daughter in the stroller and used one hand to push. he said it was very easy to push because it was light weight.

No it is not a jogging stroller. I would strictly use it for it's intended purpose of walking your precious baby. Jogging with this stroller could result in severe injury or death. The Bob revolution is a wonderful walking/jogging stroller!

I would say yes, it can be used as a jog stroller. Just lock the front wheel or it will wiggle a lot and force the stroller to make sudden stops. I always lock front wheel when walking fast/jogging or on walking on rough terrain.

I haven't jogged with mine, but I think you could jog with it. I never had a problem with my dogs' weight shifting and the stroller being unbalanced and my dogs acted all crazy in it because we were at a pet fair where there were several other dogs getting them excited. I had 2 small dogs in it. One weighs 22 lbs and the other 11 lbs. Hope this helps. PS- if the stroller veers to the left or right it's because the person didn't have the front wheel locked in place to face forward.

No. Unless your stroller is a jogging stroller then you probably could still use it that way, but it won't convert a regular stroller into a jogging stroller. We bought it because the stroller we had was not tall enough for my husband and we were hoping it would extend the grip to make it easier for him to push the stroller while walking. Didn't work well for that. In fact, the only thing it was really good for was pushing the stroller one-handed if your other hand was also occupied -- it was great at the airport. Not really useful the rest of the time for two-handed strolling.

Nope, sorry! Not a running/jogging stroller. The wheels are plastic, and in the new version they are rubber (which is better) but I'd not run with the 2011 model. I'm not sure abut the 2012 - I've heard good things but I still think it's meant to be a city-based mall/sidewalk stroller, not a jogger.

You can certainly walk quickly. I don't jog because my dog is 70+ pounds and the sidewalk is bumpy. But if you are running on the smooth road then yes you probably won't have any trouble jogging and pushing the stroller at the same time. It will build up your arm muscles!

Unfortunately if you go on the Baby Jogger website they specifically say it's not a "jogging" stroller but I walk around everywhere with it and it rides really well. For jogging my hubby purchased a used BOB Utility Sport. If you're specifically looking for a travel stroller, perhaps you'd like the City Mini since it's a few pounds lighter and I believe it's a bit cheaper...good luck!

I would use it everyday. It is definitely a smoother ride than other non-jogging strollers. I found it good when going over brick sidewalks & other rougher terrains. As you mentioned that you live in the city & may have limited space, it would be good to take a look at one of these strollers in the store as it does not fold up as compactly as other strollers. That's mainly due to the larger wheels.

The stroller is a bit too big for shopping. I generally use it for running and for walking trails (excellent for trails - a true off road vehicle). I've had trouble getting around inside stores when using my Bob and sales associates generally get a little nervous when they see you coming. It's so big that they think you'll knock something down. We have a compact stroller as well and they both have great features and benefits. For shopping, leave the Bob at home.

It has a weight restriction of no more than 35kg. I was running with my toddler when he was 3, it just gets a little harder. He is 4.5 now and I would still run with him in the stroller if I needed to, as he is only 15kg now!

I have this model and don't jog with it. Jog strollers typically have larger wheels made for fast travel on bumpy terrain. These wheels are smaller.

It's technically not a running stroller, even though the name has 'jogger' in it. It's a great all around stroller, but if you're going to run, I'd get an actual running stroller.

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.

It seems a bit heavier than a previous jogging stroller I had. I never verified accuracy of that but it doesn't have the safety cord so this alone screams "not a jogging stroller". But I did take it on a 5k once and wouldn't do that again just because it's just harder. The wheels are also more like a dirt bike wheels than a cycling wheel so you'll have more resistance there too.

There is only one negative to this stroller: the permanently locked wheel. Everything else is stellar and easily trail capable. But because of the locked wheel, it's too cumbersome to use everyday. If you only want it for running it can't be beat, you need a locked wheel for that anyway.
