I thought City Mini could be used for both? No?

This is what I figured but I read on ehre and was told by a new mama that while great Citi Mini is not REAL jogging stroller, like you can't go running with it. So I am sort of confused now Chat Icon

I like the lightweightness of the citi for our everyday stroller though....

Maybe someone can shed some light on whether you can or can't run with a citi mini? Chat Icon

I got the BOB jogger. I'm not sure about the citi mini. I remember reading somewhere that it wasn't a " real jogger stroller " but I could be wrong.

Re: Best jogging stroller?

I have the City Mini. We specifically got it because it is "jogger-ish" but not considered a real jogger Chat Icon We live on the north shore, so it it very hilly up here and we thought a more jogger-type stroller would be best for walking around here. But neither of us are runners, so we didn't need a serious one, KWIM? This was the perfect choice for us and we absolutely love it as our everyday stroller. I have no advice as far as a true jogger, but I can tell you that the City Mini, as you said, is not meant for running. HTH!

I think the Bob or this Jeep one Jeep Overland

I'm a walker, not a runner, so I'm just getting the City Mini, but I think these are both rated high as true joggers.

ETA: a true jogger stroller needs a front wheel that locks, the city mini's front wheel does not.

BOB all the way. While I haven't used it on any really long runs in marathon training, I have done a lot of 5 mile and under runs with it. I have the Duallie and two large kids. If I had a single and a light kid, I think I would go longer.


For DS#1 I bought a baby trend and there is no comparison. I would rather use the BOB duallie than the baby trend single. In fact we use the BOB as our only stroller - i don't think you need another.

I love my BOB Revolution. I've run 5K races with it. It handles really well.

Re: Best jogging stroller?

I got the Baby Trend Expedition ELX. If this cant keep up with the miles i run then ill guess im going shopping. Because im an avid runner & need something durable & good.
