Exercise enthusiasts have no fear - your love of the outdoors does not have to suffer with the arrival of your baby. There is a wide variety of fabulous jogging strollers out there that can accommodate everyone from weekend warriors to the daily dedicated. While tracking down a jogging stroller that best fits your exercise profile is important, it is equally essential that the stroller be designed with certain basic safety features.
Be on the lookout for a five-point harness that will prevent your little one from slipping in the seat and rear-wheel brakes that can prevent the stroller from folding or collapsing when in use. While you’ll find that many jogging manufactures say a baby can be in a stroller at eight weeks, our medical consultants all say that a baby should be at least six months old (eight months for off road riding), able to sit up on their own, and have some head support to withstand a potentially bumpy ride.
With so many stand-out jogging strollers and the 6 month lead time, have fun finding the one that best fits your exercise, style, and safety requirements… and let the race begin!
Bob Revolution
When it comes to jogging strollers, The Baby Planners love Bob, Bob, and Bob! What’s revolutionary about this particular Bob is that the front wheel both swivels for quick, easy, all-wheels-on-the-ground turning AND, it can be locked forward for maximum stability for running and straight-ahead walking. They say it's as easy as steering your bike – we couldn’t agree more!

Bob Iron Man
Serious fitness aficionados can appreciate this strong, lightweight and fierce Ironman stroller. This Bob meets the stringent requirements demanded of the official Ironman Triathlon and is named so accordingly. Its high-quality slick tires minimize rolling resistance, and the stiffer suspension maximizes maneuverability and response. With its simple, two-step folding design, the Ironman folds up easily to pack away into a car for a trip to the track.

Mountain Buggy Urban
From city dwellers to mountainistas, the Urban’s swiveling front wheel makes for easy maneuverability. For your off-road needs, just lock the front wheel. We like the air filled tires for a smooth ride and the air pump and drink bottle holder are nice conveniences.
