How
early can I start jogging with my child? The safest answer is: check with your pediatrician FIRST! Many experts say that 6 months is the cutoff. But bear in mind that babies need adequate neck support and should be able to lie completely flat in the seat. Also they are not able to properly regulate their temperature, so you need to protect them from over-heating on long runs. However, you have to make the final call here: as a parent, that is your main job! |

When
is a child too old to ride in a
stroller? It depends on your child's size and temperament! You'll have to stop when the child becomes too large to fit in the stroller, or when she has had enough of sitting still! At around age 4, (or about 80 lbs) most kids are either to heavy or too tall for a jogger. Most single running strollers have a maximum safe limit of around 75lbs and become unbalanced or tippy when loaded up beyond this limit. |

running stroller? If you have bought a quality stroller - then the answer is YES. The higher end models are designed to be balanced with uneven weight loads. However, if you have a lower-end brand or you are rolling on wet grass or loose stones, the stroller may skew to one side. You can even things up by placing some weight in the empty passenger seat or in the under-seat basket on the free side |
| Is
it safe to roller-blade with a jogging stroller? No! We think its kind of dangerous, and here's why: When you stumble, or hit a bump, your instinct will be to grab hold of something to keep your balance. Nine times out of ten, you will grab onto the stroller to steady yourself, and then you and the stroller will tip over. You can't go wrong with be being too safe with your infant! |
