OK, I know I posted a while back about working towards my weight loss goal...I'm doing OK...nothing fantastic yet, work has been crazy, so I keep bailing on my kickboxing lunchtime routine.
BUT! Things are looking up! I am so excited to be starting up bootcamp again after work with Michael Thrash (his brother is James Thrash, the Redskin) who is WONDERFUL...he puts together a totally challenging workout combining running (which I hate but got pretty good last year), a ton of pliometric excercises, weight training and other conditioning stuff...it is awesome, and I had a blast doing it all last spring/summer with my SIL Erica and a few of her friends. The best part? Michael is now doing his class co-ed, so Bruce gets to finally do it with me! Yay! He will love it and it will kick his butt! It's 3 days a week, M/Tu/Th from 6-6:45 over in River Creek, which is way more convenient for me this time around...it used to be over in the Broadlands community, which is in the opposite direction of where we live.
So excited...we start 5/5...can't wait!
THE REASON behind this post...Bruce and I took the kids for a long walk last night and I tried to run with the kids (in their normal side-by-side double stroller) on the flat portions of the trail...and it really bothered my ankle that I sprained over the winter. I've been jumping up and down on it just fine since then, but I guess the impact and motion of running isn't as kind to my ankle. Anyway, I need to run more, and Bruce is a good runner, I hate it, so I think I need to look into getting a double jogging stroller so that we can take the kids for runs on our off nights from bootcamp...he will push me and the kids loved the little sprints I did in their normal stroller :o)
Ladies, please let me know your reccomendations on a jogging stroller...I think you are all fans of the BOB strollers? I am going to get one on Craigslist (no way am I going to get a new one, since I don't know how much I'll use it!), so please let me know what I should look for.
Thanks!

Get a Bob Revolution Duallie. I have both the single Bob Ironman and the single Bob Revolution. While both are great jogging strollers, the Revolution is fabulous! Brand new it's going to run you about $500 something, so look on Craigslist like you said.
Yes I second Keri. That is what I got. They get great reviews. I do think they are hard to come by on Craigslist, so if you're in a time crunch you could just go with something else. You can always go to joggingstroller.com for reviews!
and yeah donny is pumped about the new list system. our house is going to look like a grocery store ;) thanks about the nursery - it has been a fun project. i'm not registered anywhere and you really don't have to get me anything. see you this week!
I have no opinions on jogging strollers - so I'm no help there! :) But I'm interested in this bootcamp class!! Where in River Creek is it? I'm almost to my 6 week mark and I need to get my butt to something.
