Traditional stroller vs jogging stroller, graco

AMarie101

I got the graco fast action fold click connect traditional but I am second guessing it now.  I will use it for shopping and walking but prob not literally jogging.  What are the pros and cons of a jogging stroller?

I originally bought a travel system and for the first couple of months was the only one I had and it worked great for me. It was winter so if we walked it was on an indoor track and a fitness class that was also inside. I had a chariot jogging stroller which I started using once he could sit up and we were walking and exercising outside. This summer I upgraded my jogging stroller to the bumbleride indie and have now stored my tradition stroller. I find the bumbleride small enough to go to the mall with and it can do gravel/outside like a pro.

We do a lot of outside activities, camping, fitness classes and running so the jogging stroller was the right decision for me. A friend, who isn't as outside active as me, uses her traditional one way more then her jogger. If you plan on doing any running or off road walking I would suggest a jogging stroller. I know the bumbleride comes with the adaptor so you can use a car seat with it. But if you are only going to be using it on sidewalks/inside keep the one you have.

If you aren't going to be jogging or using it on different terrain, I really don't see the point of a jogging stroller.  Usually they are a little more bulky than traditional strollers, so it seems silly.  I see so many people pushing these huge jogging strollers around the mall and they can't even get through a store aisle.  I just don't get it.

If you're not going to jog or need it for off road walking then I don't see why you need one - you may find this article helpful https://mamasbabystore.com/jogger-stroller-the-who-why-and-what-of-the-jogging-stroller/ if you are set on a jogging stroller check out the Baby jogger summit x3 or the bob revolution the summit x3 is narrower than the bob so shopping aisles aren't really an issue there .https://mamasbabystore.com/the-best-jogging-stroller-bob-revolution-se-vs-baby-jogger-summit-x3/
