Baby stroller for light jogging?

I have a City Mini for everyday use and love it. I've started doing some very LIGHT jogging 1015 mph pace on perfectly paved streets. I figured the City Mini was ok for this kind of use, but now I'm paranoid that I should get a jogging stroller as well.nbsp;I'm not sure I want a BOB since I jog maybe one day a week and only jog on pavement. Any other ideas for a less expensive jogger that still does the trick? nbsp;

    I just got the Graco Fast Action Fold Jogging Stroller and I love it.  I'm generally not a fan of Graco strollers but I came across this stroller when I was out testing joggers and I ended up loving it more than any other jogger I tried including the BOB,  

    Here's the amazon link but BRU has it in store if you want to test it out.

    What did people do before jogging strollers? I'm tempted to use my citi mini gt for very light jogging (12-15 minute mile), but the stroller police have me paranoid. lol.

    Another vote for the Baby Trend Expedition.  I've taken it out 4-5 times for slow jogs (I'm doing Couch to 5k right now in an effort to get back into running) and been really impressed with it.  Like you, I didn't feel like I could justify a BOB.

    they didn't jog.  or they flipped their babies.

    i had a scary moment once with a stroller (high quality all terrine but not jogger) where i was stupid and decided to run for literally 5 steps to catch the walk light across the street.  I hit a bump and the stroller started to flip forwards.  Luckily I was able to hold on and slow it down and force it backwards back on the ground, but I got a massive bruise on my shin from hitting it and it was really close to going over forwards. 

    Joggers are not just bigger wheels, they are designed to be more stable and so they can't flip.  its not just an extra thing to buy but really a safety issue.
