Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Jogging stroller question

I have a 22 month old and am currently expecting, but not due until December. I want to purchase a jogging stroller, but think it would be a good idea to get a double seater versus a single. That way, I can take both my kiddos on my jog if my hubby isn't around. My question is not only suggestions for good brands, but also if there weight difference would be awkward to run with. Also, if you think my 22 month old will want to sit in the stroller long enough. Thanks!

    I'm sure this is a YMMV based on your own toddler but my DD is starting to squirm a lot more in her jogging stroller (BOB) when we are out on walks (we haven't been jogging in about a month).  She used to be content for 45 minute walks, no problem.  But lately she seems to be quite restless on walks.

  • when DD was 18 months she was done with the stroller so we got her a leap pad for her 2nd birthday in hopes of keeping her in the stroller.  The Leap Pad, or m&ms worked great for a while, but they time she was 2 and DS came, she was in the stroller all the time w/out a problem.  She doesn't usually do the stroller now, at 3, unless we're going for a run.  I run with the two of them once or twice a week.  I give them each some snacks and we're good for a nice 20-40 min run.

    I desperately wanted a BOB Duallie because I loved my single BOB Revolution.  Since DD wasn't totatlly into the stroller when we need the double I got one off craigslist.  It's been great.  I got the car seat attachment and have been running regularly with the both of them since DS was about 3 weeks. 

  • i have a phil & ted's double that a friend gave me. I love it- I don't have any issues with LO sitting in a stroller. LO loves to go on stroller walks and actually begs for them.  I've used the doubles part of the stroller several times when I went to the mall with a friend, or the beach etc and they only had a single stroller rather than loading two strollers in the car. 

    P.S the stroller came from someone that didn't have a car and pushed their 4 & 1 yr old around town to go grocery shopping etc
