JOGGING STROLLERS

BASIC FEATURES
basic features for the passenger

Sleepy angels: In terms of jogging strollers, it is very likely that the smooth ride will lull your little passenger to sleep, which begs for a decent seat angle for comfy sleeping conditions. If you have a newborn, you must have a jogging stroller that reclines flat as they will be unable to support their own head weight, which also means you should expect some sort of supportive head and neck padding on the seat. Keep in mind that pediatricians recommend against running with a jogging stroller before the sixth month of your child's life.

One smooth ride: Fundamental to the jogging stroller design is the pneumatic tires and suspension, which allow parents to smoothly maneuver over whatever surfaces they encounter while running, walking, and hiking. But don't expect any jogging stroller to effortlessly glide over large-pot holes, veritable boulders or any other unnecessarily rugged surfaces. In principle, the jogging stroller is designed to effectively handle grass, sand, gravel, woodchips, dirt and stone paths, and any other surfaces conditions runners might be willing to trek over with a baby.

Whether the weather: The jogging stroller you purchase should effectively protect your little one's delicate skin and eyes from direct sunlight (no matter what angle the sun). Unfortunately, this is no quality control process for stroller canopies, so make sure and test out the canopy beforehand to ensure maximum protection. And while you're at it, look for a good peek-a-boo (peace of mind) window inset in the canopy. In terms of additional weather protection, there are many jogging strollers sold with attachable rain-covers, some of which also include a snuggly winter boot.
