Anyone tried jogging with this stroller? How did it handle? Thanks!!

Handles much better jogging than my bumble ride! I have never had to lock the wheels, although I know that's recommended;-). I confess I even jog with the Joey seat on the front... Def not recommended by the manufacturer. Oops. Handles really well and is the only way to get out of the house with three babies.

Yeah, it is fine handles the bumps well, it is a little "light" feeling if you don't have multiple kids in it (2+ is fine..)

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!!

Get this stroller even if you don't jog, is a life saver no joke. Handles really really smoothly and I am a small lady. Like ANY jogger stroller straight is easiest but turns are handled well. All train for sure, works great on bumps, always have a tire pump just in case though.

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.

I wouldn't jog with it. Its pretty flimsy for the price. Get a baby jogger or a bob. The fabric on this one doesnt hold up well and the rims are cheap plastic as well, over inflating causes rims to break (there is a recall on this)

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!

InStep Flash Fixed Wheel Jogger is a very nice stroller. It is fairly easy to collapse. Folds up very nice. We took it on our Florida Trip and had no problems with it. It was very easy to push on the sand.

Have not tried it with a jogging stroller, but with the stroller we used there was plenty of room for a larger model stroller, but I could not say for sure.

That is exactly what I use it for. It's the only stroller I have! It's a little heavy compared to a cheap umbrella stroller, so the loading in and out of the car trunk is a little heavy (esp. if you're pregnant like me), but definitely doable. I use mine for errands as well as exercise walks (and very slow jogs) around my neighborhood. I take mine with me everywhere.

Hi Leticia. I have not tried running with it but I love walking with it it's very comfortable and easy to maneuver.

Yes, it is a good running stroller. It would most likely be one of the better ones for off roads too, due to thick tires and shock system. It just isn't a good stroller for something like a stroll at the zoo because it is difficult to turn.

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.

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.

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

I've had the single and double version of the city mini. I personally found the single fine to jog with... A little heavy but good on flat paved surfaces. I found the double to be more of a convenient, light, fast walking stroller. I run a good amount and used both through toddler age for my kids. If you are looking to jog (10 min miles or slower) I feel like this is fine. I don't think it is the best for running. If you are looking to go faster, best RUNNING stroller is the B.O.B

Are there any cons to this double jogger? I'm looking to use it with my 7 month old & 3 & 1/2 year old. I'd like to use it as my everyday stroller as well as jogger

I've used mine for jogging on pavement and it's great. You just lock the front tires and it's very stable and easy to steer. Also, this stroller does have suspension (hidden in the rear frame forks) so it's actually quite a comfortable ride on the run. Of course the suspension is nowhere near as much as a jogger would have, but even so, for simple runs on pavement I use my Vista instead of my BOB.

You can do a slow jog. I would never run with this stroller. Its got smaller wheels and no brakes. Its an amazing stroller but a brisk walk is how I would use it.

I use mine every day to run 3-5+ miles. I absolutely love it and have no complaints. I have no experience with the ironman stroller.
