Yes it is me, back with yet another STROLLER question.
This time though I am wondering about joggers. Right now I have a OLD INSTEP jogger that I got from Returns for less. IT was a new closeout, but it was an older model (2005 I think) and it is a MONSTER. Heavy steel frame, the front wheel is bent and it is only a fixed wheel. The bottom line is that it works for NOW (since I wasn't sure if I would run with DS or not at the time it was bought), but since I am planning on really getting back into running and I want something that will work for both babies (not a double though) I would like to get something else next spring (when I save the $).
I was thinking of at some point selling my BJCMS and then consolidating and getting a BOB Revolution (in the Chocolate/Blue) but how is that for running. Online it says that you can lock the wheel for running and it is stable but I am sort of concerned. Now mind you that I would like something that has a swivel wheel as well so I can use it in the playground etc. I am figuring by next year I will be living there having a toddler. I also like the choice of accessories that comes with these strollers (the warm fuzzy and the parent console).
The running I do now is basically 2 to 4 miles most days of the week. The longer runs I will do alone and most of the running is on smooth surface (I don't off-road or trail run).
Would the Revolution work for me? I really don't like the Ironman.
Is there other ones that I am overlooking?
Thanks ladies. Sorry if that was rambling.
