So this is our latest Craig's List purchase. We bought in on Tuesday and have used it twice so far. The wheels are huge which is great for jogging (so easy to push!) but not so great for getting in and out of my car. We took it on two different park trails, one nicely paved, very hilly but shady path and one more gravel but flat and sunny path. The stroller did great on both! I, on the other hand, had to dig down deep to make it through, but I did it. And even more surprisingly, Lily did it too. This girl is very active and not one to sit for any length of time so I have to get creative to keep her occupied. But she hung in there with me, and I greatly appreciate it. It is an every day struggle, but I'm going to try my hardest to get into better shape even if...*Lily asks me several times during the walk/jog if I am mad or sad because I'm red and huffing and puffing so much.
*Children on field trips take pause to make sure that the red-faced, sweaty, out-of-breath, shaking woman pushing a little girl in a jogging stroller makes it to her car okay.
*I have to reassure Lily once I get into the car that mommy is going to be okay (even if I'm not sure).
I'm trying here!

That's okay, I was laying trail for a run and was puffing so hard a driver actually pulled over to the side of the road and asked if I was okay...so don't feel bad! Good you for getting out there!
