In a nutshell:
Based on our hands-on testing, along with input from a postnatal exercise specialist, a child product safety specialist and a pediatrician, we chose the BOB Gear Wayfinder as the overall best jogging stroller. This option stood out for its impressive suspension and sleek design, and the longevity you get from its ample leg room and high weight capacity.

Looking to take your child along for the ride on a refreshing run? A jogging stroller is an easy way to squeeze exercise into your busy mom life—and it can be used outside of your workouts too. (You’re going to want to take baby on regular strolls too, right?) The best jogging strollers keep your little one secure and comfortable while you work up a sweat, and make it easy to navigate roads, trails and more.

I’m a mom of four and former competitive distance runner who’s logged some serious mileage with jogging strollers over the past decade. I’ve used jogging strollers on 10-mile runs and 5k races, along with daily training runs. Based on my personal experience, the right jogging stroller has to be a good fit for you and your child so that you both look forward to using it. “There are a lot of jogging stroller options,” says Julia Lentini of the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) board of directors. “It’s important to consider how you intend to use your stroller. Are you buying a jogging stroller because you’re a serious distance runner? Are you an occasional jogger? Are you just looking for something that is more maneuverable when you are off-road or in the park? These usage scenarios inform how robust your stroller needs to be to work well for you.”

How We Tested and Chose the Best Jogging Strollers

The Bump editors conducted extensive research to identify 14 of the top-rated jogging strollers on the market, and chose a shortlist of eight standout products to test. From there:

  • We enlisted the help of eight families who used these strollers with their children on runs, jogs and walks across a range of terrain to ensure we had the best sense of how these strollers perform in a variety of situations.
  • We interviewed a postnatal fitness expert, a child product safety expert and two board-certified pediatricians for advice on what to look for in a jogging stroller.
  • To see how these strollers worked for a range of families, we conducted intensive market research, analyzing feedback from forums and message boards to see what parents thought of each stroller. We also took a deep dive into user reviews, taking note of any challenges other parents experienced, as well as where they thought these strollers shined.

Editorial integrity is at the heart of everything we publish. Read about how The Bump develops and reviews all articles, including product reviews.

The Best Jogging Strollers

Overall best jogging stroller

What We Love
  • Highly-rated all-wheel suspension
  • Ample leg room and high child weight capacity
  • One-handed fold that’s comparatively compact
  • Zip-top storage basket
Things To Consider
  • High price point
  • Heavier than other models

Whether you’re taking it slow or focusing on high-intensity sprints, this jogging stroller will match your pace. Named the overall best jogging stroller in this year’s Best of The Bump awards, the BOB Gear Wayfinder offers a sleek design and road-ready features for an easy push and smooth ride over a variety of terrain. Our product tester Hayley gave this model perfect 10 out of 10 scores for ease of pushing, features, style and design and quality as a jogger, telling us, “Jogging with the stroller was easy and enjoyable!” And she wasn’t the only one to love running with the Wayfinder—this pick was mentioned time and again in online forums as a favorite jogging stroller among serious runners. (See all of this year’s Best of The Bump winners.)

Designed with safety in mind, the Wayfinder boasts a five-point safety harness as well as a handbrake and wrist strap for downhill control. The swiveling front wheel locks into place when you’re ready to run, and independent dual suspension combined with air-filled tires guarantee a smooth ride on uneven sidewalks or rough trails. “The BOB Jogging Stroller made for a very smooth ride for my baby and me over any type of terrain,” Hayley reported. Jogging strollers are heavier to carry and pick up than most other stroller types (and, at 31 pounds, the Wayfinder was the heaviest jogger we tested), but Hayley found it to be “light to push” along a range of different paths.

Our tester also had high praise for the zip-top storage basket, which keeps contents secure over the bumpiest terrains and was one of her favorite features. “It zips up completely and can store all of mine and my little one’s needs for our journey!” Set-up was easy, too—Hayley was up and running within 10 minutes. While jogging strollers tend to fall on the larger side when folded, this model has a relatively compact fold—30 percent smaller than the Thule Urban Glide 2 and UPPAbaby Ridge, according to the brand—and Hayley noted that it was easy to fold and unfold with one hand.

Best of all? This is a stroller that lasts. BOB strollers earn a lot of justified praise from parents for their durability, and for the ample leg room that gives kids space to grow. And the Wayfinder has a high child weight capacity of 75 pounds, so you can use it for longer than most other models. All in all, the Wayfinder is a stroller you can get a lot of mileage out of.

Dimensions (open): 43.8" (L) x 25" (W) x 45.5" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 16.5" (L) x 22" (W) x 32.5" (H) | Weight: 31.1 lbs. | Weight capacity: 75 lbs. | Car seat compatible: Y | Tires: Air | Adjustable tracking: Y

Our product tester says:
“I liked the smooth ride and didn’t have to worry about getting jammed up when taking turns. I believe my son found a lot of comfort with this stroller.”

Best jogging stroller for everyday use

BabyJogger summit X3 Jogging Stroller
Image: Nordstrom
What We Love
  • Easy one-handed fold
  • Wheel lock operated from handlebar
  • High child weight capacity
  • Easy-access roomy basket
Things To Consider
  • High price point
  • Does not stand in folded position

Generally speaking, jogging strollers aren’t cheap. Some parents may balk at the idea of buying one stroller for errands or walks, and another expensive stroller just for exercise. But the BabyJogger summit X3 is designed to give you the best of both worlds—whether it’s a casual stroll in the city or a run along rugged trails—making it our Best of The Bump winner for best jogging stroller for everyday use. Our product tester Amber said she was “very impressed” at how well this stroller performed across a range of terrains. “The large wheels and suspension make the stroller easy to steer and maneuver while delivering a smooth ride for my little one,” she said, adding that the stroller is “comfortable and easy to use at all speeds.”

The summit X3 is loaded with features designed to make everyday use simple. One-handed steering makes it easy to navigate busy streets, while an adjustable handlebar lets you push at the right height for you. The seat features a “very nice recline” that is near lie-flat and great for on-the-go naps, and the basket, with a useful 10 pounds weight capacity, “is a decent size for holding water bottles, sweaters, snacks and other essentials for when you are out and about with your kids,” Amber reported. She also had nothing but praise for the one-handed fold. “One of my favorite qualities of this stroller is how easy it is to fold up,” she told us. “There’s a handle on the seat of the stroller that says ‘pull to fold’ and that’s all there is to it.” Plus, it’s car-seat compatible, so you can start using this stroller as a convenient travel system with your little one, and it offers great longevity with a high weight capacity of 75 pounds.

Of course, as good as the summit X3 is as an everyday stroller, it doesn’t slack off when it’s time to run. “This stroller excels in the jogging category,” Amber told us, awarding it a perfect 10 out of 10 score for quality as a jogger. “It’s obvious that when BabyJogger created this stroller, they had jogging quality at the forefront.” When it’s time to pick up the pace, the front wheel can be easily locked into position right from the handlebar, eliminating the need to stop and bend down to switch between modes. Plus, a hand-operated rear brake allows for deceleration and increased control on hilly or uneven terrain. “The hand brake is amazing to have when running in hilly areas and the rubberized handlebar with Velcro wrist strap makes me feel confident that my child is safe and I won’t lose control of the stroller in more difficult terrains,” Amber shared.

A cool little bonus: Baby Jogger also has a limited edition version of the summit X3 designed in partnership with marathon runner and fitness instructor Robin Arzón.

Dimensions (open): 50.8" (L) x 25.8" (W) x 41.7" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 34.6" (L) x 25.7" (W) x 15.35" (H) | Weight: 28.4 lbs. | Weight capacity: 75 lbs. | Car seat compatible: Y | Tires: Air | Adjustable tracking: Y

Our product tester says:
“It delivers a smooth and safe ride on all terrains and boasts a ton of great features. The hand brake and Velcro wrist strap give a level of safety and security, while the reclining seat and large canopy make for a comfortable experience.”

Best infant jogging stroller

What We Love
  • Newborn-friendly with the UPPAbaby bassinet
  • Foam-filled tires avoid punctures
  • Large capacity basket with cover
  • Upright toddler seat
Things To Consider
  • Bassinet attachment should not be used while jogging
  • High price point
  • Foam-fliled may not be as smooth as air tires

When it comes to jogging strollers, you won’t be able to run with baby until they can sit up—which is usually around the six month mark, but can be as late as eight months or more. But rather than let your jogging stroller gather dust in the closet until baby is old enough, go for an option that can be used right from the get-go—like the UPPAbaby Ridge, our Best of The Bump award for best infant jogging stroller. When paired with the UPPAbaby bassinet or a compatible car seat, it can be used from birth as a normal stroller and then as a standout jogging stroller.

Our product tester Domonique found this stroller was “easy and light” to push across a range of terrain, noting that she was “shocked at how lightweight the stroller felt while jogging.” The stroller has an easily-adjustable handlebar, which our tester found handy for switching off between herself and her husband. The stroller’s foam-filled tires (rather than puncture-prone air-filled) are good for strolls with baby beyond the running track, although may not offer such a smooth ride over rough ground as pneumatic air tires. When it’s time for storage the stroller folds up with ease. “This is one of the easiest folding strollers I've had” Domonique told us. “You can easily fold with one hand and once upright the stroller stays in place while closed. There's a unique rotating bar you turn to open and collapse the stroller. It's a well thought out design.”

Image: Domonique S

Domonique raved about all of the added features this stroller offers—the handlebar’s “nice cushion grip” was a particular favorite, and she also singled out the zipper storage for your phone, a slot for your headphone cord and a water bottle holder that you can remove or switch to the side. And with a 20-pound weight capacity, this stroller’s basket is one of the larger ones we tested. While the UPPABaby Ridge All-Terrain Stroller is on the higher price end, our tester said that it’s “absolutely worth every penny,”and with all these bells and whistles, it’s easy to see why!

The UPPAbaby Ridge is available for purchase with or without the separate bassinet attachment, and compatible with an infant car seat. But remember that you should never run with these attachments. “If you are using an infant carrier installed on your jogging stroller, this configuration is safe for walking-speed only,” says Lentini.

Dimensions (open): 40.5" (L) x 26" (W) x 38.5" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 8.5″ (L) x 26″ (W) x 36.5″ (H) | Weight: 29.2 lbs. | Weight capacity: 55 lbs. | Car seat compatible: Y | Tires: Foam-filled | Adjustable tracking: Y

Our product tester says:
“The suspension made it a very smooth and comfortable ride for my child when I would go from pavement to cobblestone. While this is on the pricier end for a stroller, it is absolutely worth every penny. It's incredibly well built and truly made for all-terrain.”

Best lightweight jogging stroller

Cybex AVI
Image: Amazon
What We Love
  • Lightweight for a jogging stroller
  • Less expensive than others
  • Secure storage basket
  • Large wheels for high performance running
Things To Consider
  • Not for everyday use
  • Weight capacity is lower than some other models

Let’s address the very hefty elephant in the room: Jogging strollers tend to be heavy. As Lentini says, “a robust jogging stroller has a metal frame; large, pneumatic tires; active suspension and all the safety features.” The pounds add up quickly! The Cybex AVI jogging stroller is the lightest jogger we tested at 23.4 pounds, but it still manages to be packed with features and perform on a level that earned it a Best of The Bump award for best lightweight jogging stroller. The AVI “excels in maneuverability over different surfaces, particularly on flat ground where it's effortlessly pushed even while walking or jogging,” our tester Catelyn shared.

Image: Catelyn G

Testing revealed that the Cybex AVI’s lower weight doesn’t affect performance; Catelyn told us the stroller is “remarkably easy” to jog with, thanks to its smooth ride. She says the hood is robust and effective, and that the seat recline functionality is excellent, offering both upright and fully reclined positions. Setup took 15 minutes and the stroller also folded with no issues. The Cybex AVI even has a roomy storage basket that can hold up to 11 pounds of gear. “The basket is perfectly sized, easily accessible, and securely holds belongings without spillage,” Catelyn said.

Keep in mind that the Cybex AVI is designed purely as a jogging stroller—it has a fixed front wheel that would make it more challenging to steer during everyday activities, like while running errands. But it’s a great pick for parents who plan on logging serious miles with their little one.

Dimensions (open): 59" (L) x 27" (W) x 46" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 35″ (L) x 23″ (W) x 10″ (H) | Weight: 23.4 lbs. | Weight capacity: 49 lbs. | Car seat compatible: Y | Tires: Air | Adjustable tracking: N (as fixed wheel)

Our product tester says:
“The suspension system works well to absorb shocks, ensuring a smooth ride for the little one while maintaining stability for the runner. For those seeking a reliable and well-made stroller at a reasonable price, the Cybex Avi proves to be a worthy choice, delivering solid performance and durability.”

Best compact jogging stroller

Guava Family Roam
Image: Guava Family
Buying Options
Guava Family|$549.95
What We Love
  • Narrow frame
  • Compact fold makes it easy to store
  • Foam-filled tires avoid punctures
  • Wheel lock operated from handlebar
Things To Consider
  • No hand brake
  • High price point
  • Foam-filled may not be as smooth as air tires
  • Folding and unfolding isn’t graceful

While most jogging strollers come with a wide footprint, the Guava Family Roam—our Best of The Bump pick for best compact jogging stroller—has a small frame and lightweight feel. This stroller is perfectly suited to city-dwellers who love the active life, and can easily be stashed in a closet or corner when it’s not in use, which impressed our product tester Michelle, who told us, “This is easily one of the best strollers that I’ve tried out!” The compact design also proved to be a winner for Alex S., a mom of one, who says, “This jogging stroller is amazing. I like everything about it, but my favorite thing is it folds easily, compactly and stands on its own when folded! [] The other thing I love about it is how high the baby sits in it, you can basically use it as a high chair at a restaurant! It's also pretty narrow for a jogging stroller and doesn't feel too bulky for city streets.”

Image: Michelle K

Despite its compact size and slightly smaller rear wheels than others we tested, the Roam had no issues performing as a jogger and handling rough ground. “It’s so easy to maneuver on any terrain, going over any bumps, even easy to push through the grass!” commented Michelle. “It is a bit heavy in general but doesn’t feel heavy to push at all even going uphill.“ The stroller features foam-filled tires, minimizing the risk of punctures when on uneven ground, though high performance runners may prefer the ultra-smooth ride of air-filled tires. Careful thought has gone into the storage options for active parents. Alex loved the assortment of pockets (zippered and bungee) across the base and seat, which she said secure your belongings when running.

If you hate the idea of putting together a stroller, great news: The Guava Family Roam Stroller comes fully assembled. It also has a fold size that claims to be 50 percent smaller than most jogging strollers. Michelle found that the folding and unfolding mechanism wasn’t graceful, but she was able to master it with more practice. “To fold it, you just pull a strap underneath the seat and you don’t need to deal with a bunch of obnoxious buttons being held down at the same time or fight it to try to get it unlock,” she shared. And when we asked Alex for her overall opinion, she told us, “I literally cannot say enough good things about it!! I’ve used it on all terrain and it copes very well.”

Dimensions (open): 39" (L) x 25" (W) x 43" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 29" (L) x 15" (W) x 17" (H) | Weight: 28.5 lbs. | Weight capacity: 60 lbs. | Car seat compatible: Y | Tires: Foam-filled | Adjustable tracking: Y

Our product tester says:
“The Guava Roam is great for both walking and jogging and easy to control at any speed. All three of my kids (9 months, 3 and 5) can fit SO comfortably in it, which I wasn’t expecting. I’d honestly recommend this to anyone who’s big on jogging!”

Best budget-friendly jogging stroller

BabyTrend Expedition Jogger
Image: Walmart
What We Love
  • Affordable price point
  • Easy to push with one hand
  • Comfortable ride
  • Lightweight for a jogging stroller
Things To Consider
  • No hand brake
  • Not car seat compatible
  • Handlebar and tracking aren’t adjustable
  • Weight capacity is lower than some other models

We’ve talked about how jogging strollers tend to run large; the features that make them good for running also tend to make them big. And by now you’ve probably noticed that these big and impressive strollers tend to come with an equally large price tag. But our Best of The Bump winner for best budget-friendly jogging stroller, the BabyTrend Expedition Jogger, delivers a great jogging experience at a third of the cost of most options. Testing revealed that this stroller is “easy to push and steer,” and our product tester Samantha found she could easily run at a comfortable pace while pushing the jogger with just one hand. ”It was light enough to push with my 25-pound child and I found it easy to push even when holding my child,” she told us.

Image: Samantha R

Despite its budget price, the Expedition still delivered on comfort for Samantha and her child. “My child seemed very comfortable in it each time I used it with him and seemed to enjoy the ride,” she explained. “The seat height and length along with the footrest fit him well. The tray was also at a good height for him to help himself to snacks and it locks in tightly so he can't move it.” Samantha gave the stroller’s grip high marks for being cushiony and easy to hold. “The safety strap for my wrist was comfortable and easy to use,” she told us, “though it wasn't really needed since the stroller is easy to control with jogging.”

Just a few caveats to be aware of: Samantha noted that the wheels squeaked at times and felt that the suspension wasn't as robust as she would have preferred. But if you’re an occasional runner looking for an affordable option, she says that “It shares a lot of quality features as my higher-priced stroller, but is extremely comparable.”

Dimensions (open): 48" (L) x 24" (W) x 41" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 36" (L) x 24" (W) x 18" (H) | Weight: 24.9 lbs. | Weight capacity: 50 lbs. | Car seat compatible: N | Tires: Air | Adjustable tracking: N

Our product tester says:
“I have a similar stroller that was more expensive but is very comparable in features and quality. If I'd tried this product before purchasing, I would have picked it for its price point.”

When Can You Run With Baby?

Before you chart out a daily route, know that you can’t just head out for a jog on day one with a newborn. We spoke with Maneesha Agarwal, MD, a pediatrician and member of the American Academy of Pediatrics Council on Injury, Violence and Poison Prevention, who told us, “we typically recommend that parents wait until the baby is 6 months old before using a jogging stroller for running. Babies have relatively large heads and poor neck musculature, meaning they could suffer injury with all the jostling around involved with riding in a jogging stroller. If the baby was born prematurely, parents should use 6 months from the expected due date.”

In order to run with a jogging stroller, baby needs to be able to sit up, which usually happens around 6 months old, but can be later for some children—by 8 months is a safe bet. Lentini cautions that you should always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for minimum age, weight, height and developmental stages when using a product, but agrees that “most babies develop enough control for jogging between 6 to 8 months.” Prior to this, infants haven’t developed adequate head and neck strength to withstand the bumps in the road.

You can still walk with baby in a jogging stroller before then, especially since many models are compatible with an infant car seat. When baby is ready, remove the car seat, and you’re both ready to kick up the speed. Before your first run, Agarwal suggests that parents practice using the stroller without baby, “to make sure they are comfortable with the stroller, its mechanics and how it impacts running mechanics.” And once you do get moving, always remember to periodically check on baby.

What to Look for in a Jogging Stroller

A jogging stroller has specific safety features, including:

  • Five-point safety harness. Your child must be safely strapped in before you go out for a walk or run. A five-point harness, which restrains your child at the shoulders and hips, “will keep your baby securely in the seat,” says Daniel Ganjian, MD, a board-certified pediatrician at Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, CA. This is an essential feature, particularly if you plan on running downhill or over rough terrain. Lentini agrees, telling us, “Harnessing your child in a jogging stroller is so important.”
  • Wrist strap. “Parent wrist straps are a feature that can help to prevent accidental stroller runaway,” says Lentini. A wrist strap tethers you to the stroller, so baby won’t separate from you as you fly like the wind!
  • All-terrain tires and suspension. A jogging stroller needs to have robust wheels built for gliding over tricky terrain, especially if you plan to run off-path. This, combined with shock-absorbing suspension, “will help to smooth out the ride for your baby,” Ganjian says. Most models have three large air-filled or solid rubber tires with built-in suspension that absorb shocks and operate much like those on a bicycle. Sara Haley, a mom of four and an ACE-certified postnatal exercise specialist, agrees: “You want a comfortable ride for baby, but [the suspension] will also affect you as the runner/walker while you’re running, especially over rougher terrain.” If you’re using air-filled tires, Agarwal reminds parents to check that they’re properly inflated before a run just as you would a bicycle or car.
  • A front wheel that locks. Unlike a regular stroller, which needs to swivel for sharp turns, say, in the grocery store, a jogging stroller requires its front wheel to lock in a forward position when on a jog, so it doesn’t vibrate or accidentally slip to the right or left. A few jogging strollers, purely designed for running, have a fixed-only front wheel.
  • Adjustable wheel tracking. Some jogging strollers enable you to manually adjust the wheel tracking, so you can easily fix a front wheel that’s pulling or straying to one side. This is particularly important when running on flat surfaces.
  • An easy-to-access brake. As well as a well-positioned foot brake, many jogging strollers have a hand brake, positioned on the handlebar. This allows for controlled deceleration when you’re really in your stride.
  • A comfortable seat. A deep, reclining seat is a must. After all, if baby’s not happy and relaxed you’ll have to cut your run short.
  • An adjustable handlebar. Or one that happens to be the perfect height for you. You shouldn’t have to bend or stretch awkwardly as you go; pushing should be effortless so you can focus on your run.
  • Sun canopy. The warmer months are ideal for outdoor exercise, but it’s important to protect your little ones from those UV rays year round. “A large adjustable canopy for your child is nice for protecting your child from the sun or rain,” Haley says. You don’t want to use an alternative like a blanket, as Agarwal warns, “The blanket can trap heat and puts the baby at risk for overheating and heat related illnesses.”
