I used to run once.
Every time the weather gets warmer, my mind tells me that my body should be running...or is it vice-versa?
I was doing some research and I am looking for a decent running stroller in which to take my little on to the park and 'run'.
I remember long ago, I got one when my oldest daughter was two, and that thing was a monster.
Running with it was so difficult.
It was like pushing an elephant in heat. (I don't even know what that means...)
Needless to say, but I am going to say it anyway, it didn't get much use because it was painful, not relaxing, to go running.
With that particular stroller I didn't go with the 'top of the line' stroller', and it was years ago, so maybe that's why it was so cumbersome.
I was looking at some online and the 'best' one was about $750.00 (WTF?) and ranged to the cheapest at $150.00.
Before I go for something somewhere in the middle of that mess, has anyone got one that they absolutely adore?
I suppose I should go in-person to the store and 'test' some, but I'd be happy to hear some stories / suggestions beforehand.
Cheers!

This will be a good starting point for my excursion to the baby shops.
Why do I somehow feel like I'm going to end up with the most expensive one, anyway?
Too bad there isn't one that can just drag me along while putting the baby to sleep at the same time.
I once decided to take my neighbor's German Shepherd for a walk...on my rollerblades.
I was 13 at the time and weighed like 60 pounds.
The dog, Sandy, saw a cat or something...and took off like a bat out of hell down the street.
I immediately lost footing and got dragged for like 6 minutes through the road.
I still have a scar on my right leg where the road was embedded into my missing flesh...
It freaking hurt, to say the least.
Maybe instead of a running stroller I will buy a box of donuts to ease the pain of the memories...

To look at some models, then see if you can find them on eBay or Craigslist.
My pet name for it is 'Fu&#ing Satan'.
