For those that run with a jogging stroller, which one do you have?
I recently found a mothers running group and I would like to join. I would like to start this week so I need a stroller.
I really do not want to spend a lot but at the same time I want it to last. I would be going 3 days a week anywhere from 3-5 miles a day. Each session is about 4 months.
I looked on Craigslist but there isn't much in my area (if anyone wants to look in Central/North/South Jersey for me).
The 2 trails they do either a paved path with very little gravel or the other is mostly gravel.
Thanks

I have a Bob revolution and love it. I actually found mine on Craigslist in North Jersey last year.
Do you need a single or a double?
here's one in Westfield

I need a single and they seem hard to come by or they look disgusting!
I did find one in Mine Hill but it has the stationary front wheel (i think it is the BOB Utility).

I have the bob ironman. I love it. In my opinion if you want a jogging stroller you definitely want a fixed front wheel.

If there is a slight bend in the road/trail is it easy to maneuver?

I have the Bob Revolution. I've run a few 5k races with it. I personally hate having the wheel fixed. It's difficult to maneuver if you have a lot of turns. I've never had any issues running without the fixed wheel. I love the stroller.

ITA, I do not like the fixed wheel either. But with the Revolution, you can switch the wheel to either fixed or not.
