I need a new jogging stroller

I need a new (hopefully under $200) jogging stroller, and I'm looking for recommendations. ?I definitely want a front swivel wheel. ?I run about 4 miles a day, so it has to be good for running. ?Do you have one that you love?

    I have this one which is a double but I know they also make a signle version. I like it a lot. I haven't had any problems.

    I have the Babytrend one...it's worked well so far but I can't say I've run 4 miles/day Embarrassed.  But, it's done a lot of walking and Nathan is super comfy in it.

    Yes. I absolutely love my Phil and Ted's, but they are $400. It's expensive, but I am the stroller queen (I think I have about 5 different ones in my garage), and this one is the one DH and I use ALL the time. You can use it as a jogger or as just a normal stroller. Plus, it's smaller than most joggers. I like the fact that the wheels aren't as huge as my Scwinn jogger, and that it has a great swivel wheel.

    I saw a tike tech, which is a decent running stroller, for under $200 today, maybe at BRU online?  I think it is one of the better ones in that price range.  My friend has the instep and it is falling apart.  I have a phil and ted, I would not run with it.  Our running stroller is a chariot, which is great, though we also have a mountain buggy, which is an all around wonderful stroller and if you can go to $325, JoggingStroller.com usually has some of last years model for that and it is totally worth it, and the resale is at least $100 after several years, unlike the cheaper models, where your lucky to get $30.

    I wouldn't scrimp if you run four miles a day. Maybe try Craigslist for a Bob revolution.

    I have a P&T Vibe and I wouldn't buy a P&T for jogging if you are a four mile a day jogger. The wheels are 12" and it takes more effort on your part to jog with it. I jog with my P&T all the time, but not to the extent you do. I would go with a true jogging stroller with the larger wheels.

    The Bob Revolution 12" AW stroller is more of a hybrid made for jogging/mall trips. I looked into it and it's not a true jogger either. Just a little extra info for you. I would go P&T before the 12" Bob.
