BOB Stroller + National Stroller Running Day

May 27, 2015 | baby, fitness, running

Back when I was pregnant with Emma Kate, the amazing folks at Britax were generous enough to send me a jogging stroller for me and baby! I was sent the BOB Revolution SE, and it was love at first sight.

I had been reading up on the Best Lightweight Stroller โ€“ Lightest Stroller of 2017 among dozens of other baby items for months, and I had my heart set on the BOB.

There are so many great features packed into this bad boy, but Iโ€™m just going to tell you about a few of my favorites,

Smooth ride: I swear this thing rides better than my car. Itโ€™s SO SMOOTH, which is a must when you are walking with a sleeping baby, Itโ€™s super easy to push and takes bumps very well for a stroller.

Shade and viewing window: I love how far down the shade canopy comes, and how you can retract it part of the way or all the way. Also, the plastic/clear viewing window is great because I can take a peek at baby from above and see if she is sleeping or not, etc.

Lots of space: We all know babies need a TON of stuff. There is a nice big basket underneath the stroller where you can put blankets, diapers, a jacket, etc. and it also stays pretty well out of the elements.

Easy fold up: When I take Emma Kate to walk at the park, I typically go alone and meet a friend there, so I am on my own for packing and unpacking t he stroller. With two easy steps, it is folded completely down and I just lift it up into the back of my SUV. Then, I just set it on the ground and pull it up until it clicks for a simple set up. Works for me!

Adjustable: Sometimes when I know the baby is going to nap I will lower the seat back so that she is more reclined and doesnโ€™t hurt her poor little neck. I love how easy it is to loosen or tighten the straps to make this possible.

Emma Kate loves people watching, and is typically a good girl in the stroller and will even fall asleep in it.

If you are looking for a baby stroller and know you will be walking a lot or jogging with it, this is a great option. I know they are a little pricey, but this stroller will last for many years and Emma Kate wonโ€™t outgrow it until itโ€™s time for her to not even need a stroller anymore!

On another note National Stroller Running Day is May 31st!

Katie from Momโ€™s Little Running Buddies has coordinated this effort, and has set up a website with all the information you need to know, along with some giveaways!

BOB strollers is sponsoring this special day, and winning a jogging stroller would be AWESOME! There will be a twitter chat with BOB later this week with a stroller giveaway (keep checking the website for exact date/time). Be sure to join the fun with #StrollerRun15, and be sure to check out the Instagram and Twitter pages.

UPDATE: Now through June 7 2015, purchase a BOB revolution SE single & duallie jogging stroller andย receiveย aย free gift or promo code at participating retailers while supplies last.

QOTD: Do you have a jogging stroller? What features did you/are you looking for in a stroller?

Disclosure: I was provided with a BOB stroller from Britax, however all opinions are my own.

    I inherited a used BOB stroller (2008) from my sister and I am looking forward to jogging with baby girl. She is 5 months now and has great neck/head control. When did you start jogging with EK?

      I bought a car seat adapter so I ran with her in the stroller in her car seat when she was 4 months old with my dr.’s permission. I only went on very smooth roads, too. They recommend not running the normal way until 8 months, I waited until just after 7

        Thanks! The model I have is older than the adaptors… I was a little sad. I’m still looking forward to running with her ๐Ÿ™‚ Love seeing pics of your little one.

#ad Who says gift cards canโ€™t be personal? ๐ŸŽโ˜•๏ธ 

This year I wanted to do something special for my coffee-loving friend โ€” something simple but still thoughtful. I grabbed a Starbucks gift card from Walgreens (they seriously have every kind you can think of, and you can even Buy Online, or Pickup In Store ๐Ÿ™Œ). 

Then I added my own touch: a cute Christmas mug, a candy cane, and a little note. Because the best gifts donโ€™t have to be complicated, they just have to show you care. ๐Ÿ’›

#ad For too long, retirement has been painted as โ€œslowing down.โ€ But for me? Itโ€™s the opposite.

I see retirement as the start of bold adventures, family memories, and the freedom to keep moving and exploring โ€” whether thatโ€™s traveling, staying active, or saying yes to new experiences.

โœจIโ€™m protecting my passion 

Because the people I love, the life Iโ€™ve built, and the retirement I want โ€” itโ€™s all part of my lifeโ€™s work. And @Prudential can help protect it.
