Where do you jog with LO?

I'm interested in starting to run again, but outdoors with Els.  Any suggestions on locations?

    Gloucester Twp park on Peter Cheeseman Road has pavement to run on.  The park by the Gloucester Twp Police Dept has an actual track.

    I thought the rule was no jogging with the baby until 6 months? At that point it will be winter, so running outside probably wouldn't be ideal.

    I personally like the idea of jogging on a track -- just seems safer to me. Less bumpy for baby. At least until 9 months or so. The scenery isn't great, but it would make me feel better.

    Now that I think about it, with all the parks that we take the girls to, I've never seen someone jogging with a stroller. I'm sure people do, I've just never noticed. I only ever see them walking.

    Have you looked into Stroller Strides? They don't run, but they do work out.

    I can attach my car seat in the jogging stroller.

    It's technically not recommended to jog like that. If you are, definitely find a flat, smoother surface. I did it once in my neighborhood since I was SO slow in the beginning, but the jogging stroller has a tendency to tip when the carseat is attached and it made me very uneasy.

    I go to Cooper River, it's 3.65 miles around.  In between Cherry Hill, Collingswood and Camden, right off of Rt. 130.  

    Pennypacker park in CH is another option.

    I jog in my neighborhood in the road (sidewalks are too narrow).  It's 1.3 miles.  I rotate out the 3 kids in the double jogger.  I asked my pedi about jogging with the LOs and they say the rec is at least 6 months but they prefer that you actually wait until 9 months.
