Do people use this as jogging stroller? description says not to be used as jogging stroller - maybe because no hand brake?

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 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)

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.

No the main advantage is the weight but the wheels for jogging should be bigger i will not do that with my baby in this stroller We could get stuck and fall.

Yes! I just used mine last night to walk with the baby downton to the Christmas parade. This stroller is not set up to be a 'jogging stroller' with bike-type wheels for off-road jogging or anything, but as long as there is pavement or relatively smooth grass or dirt surfaces, you are fine. I highly recommend this piece of equipment. We have really loved ours.

Yes to both. I have not converted it for jogging yet but my husband has and says its super simple. The instructions even show a woman assembling it... Funny. But the storage is behind the child's head so if you put something hard in there, just toss a towel or small blanket back there to cushion. My daughter has a blast riding. I have fun and am loving it! I highly recommend this brand.

The wheels are plastic like most umbrella strollers, so it's not going to be smooth like a jogging stroller on cobblestone. Much much lighter than any jogging stroller, though.

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. I've jogged with it but it's not designed as a 'real' jogging stroller.

Yes. Its great. I bought it cos I'm tall and needed extra height for my stroller - which it's great for. Also great for one handed strolling. Can jog with it as long as you have a jogging stroller.

No ... You really need to buy the separate jogging wheel if you are going to do some serious (or even light) running. Even if you just run very lightly, the swivel wheels swivel like crazy.... It doesn't work. However...it is a wonderful jogging stroller and turns like nothing... So I still recommend it for running, just get the alssparate wheel. It is very easy to pop them on and out to switch them up

Yes I definitely would. I use this stroller everyday. This difference I have noticed from my friends strollers is the ease of it. Its really easy to move around with. Eben if you dont plan on jogging this is definitely a great stroller.

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.

yes! and then you can make it fixed when ready to jog also! It is an awesome stroller! manuevers so smoothly and over any terrain! Very happy I waited for this model to come out! great buy!

I have this stroller and while it's definitely not as light and easy to push as a real jogger like the BOB, I've found that on a decently smooth city jogging trail (like the one close to my house), I can do a slow jog and push it just fine. And slow jogging is all I'm doing these days, post baby. :)

There is a wrist strap & I don't feel the hand brake is necessary. I love this stroller and totally recommend.

I have not used it as a stroller yet, but I would imagine it to be good for that purpose. I like that it is a single child carrier so it is not as bulking as some of these can be. I really am happy with as a bike trailer.

Hello,There are no brakes on this stroller unfortunately, but it is definitely something worth mentioning!Thanks!

It's lightweight and maneuvers easily, but I don't think I'd use it as a jogger. The three wheel design works for other joggers bc they are bigger, in this one I think the compact nature wouldn't be an asset for stability. I also have the City Elite and that one I'd use as a jogger, I currently use that to power walk with my dogs. It's much sturdier. All that said, if you still opt for this stroller, get the GT model with real wheels. We use this for travel and as a car stroller, and in just that I am not happy with the plasticy wheels. If you ran w it you'd definitely need real wheels! Hope that helps :) It's lightweight and maneuvers easily, but I don't think I'd use it as a jogger.
