Is it safe to run with the Baby Jogger City Select or City Select Lux?

Using the same stroller for everyday use and jogging can be tempting, but running with the Baby Jogger City Select Lux and City Select is not recommended for a variety of reasons.

Unlike traditional jogging strollers, the City Select and City Select Lux have large foam filled wheels. Although these wheels are durable, the suspension, design, and tread is not intended for running. Moreover, the seat on jogging strollers has a more reclined design whereas the seats on the City Select and City Select Lux have a more upright design with a reclining hinge. These seats will not absorb the increased motion of running. If you do intend to take your child on runs with you, we recommend getting a stroller that is specifically designed for this purpose.
