A Source of Inspiration and Well-being -

If you are a lucky entrepreneur, you partner with a great team of people to invent a product that has a positive impact on people's lives. Our aim has always been to transform sport and fitness for parents by designing great equipment that makes doing what they love possible. It matters to us because we believe that doing what you love with the people you love is a source of timeless and inspirational well-being. 

Nobody demonstrates these founding KidRunner principles better than Michelle @myjourneyjusttolive. Michelle is a mother of 3 who is determined to stay vital for herself, her kids and her family while fighting incurable stage 4 cancer. That's right; incurable cancer with 3 young kids. When Michelle first reached out to KidRunner to learn if she could use it to pull one of her kids while she pushed the other two, we first doubted her, then we knew she was the real deal then we started crying out of inspiration for her journey. 

We were honored to welcome Michelle to the KidRunner community. We were thrilled when we got her first photos and videos running with her family. We were awestruck when some of those runs took place in brutal NE Canada winter weather! But apparently, nothing stops Michelle. 

Thanks to Michelle and the entire KidRunner community of parents and adventurers who have partnered with us to share stories about what's possible when innovation and passion converge to create life changing experiences. 

Shhh! Mom's Asleep....

Shhh! Mom's Asleep....

It's 9:30AM in Bend, OR. Mom's been up all night. She's finally getting a little rest. Dad and co-pilot have one hour to run together.

Scott knows how the body works. He's walked the entire Pacific Crest Trail. Would he have done that holding his hands at his side. Never. Why? Because free arms and hands generate 30% of your bio mechanic efficiency and help you reduce injuries. 

Natural running form is why we invented KidRunner. It's the first natural running form, hands free, high performance joggings stroller in the world. Up hill, downhill, multi-terrain or around the neighborhood. There is no replacement for natural form running. 

 

 

KidRunner Loves Racing and so do Kids!

KidRunner Loves Racing and so do Kids!

KidRunner parents and their co-pilots love to race. Hands free jogging stroller; high performance and super versatile. We also love to collaborate with our community to host race events like the recent Bend Marathon in Bend, OR on April 10th.  And don't forget...KidRunner reimburses all race entry fees when our parents run with their KidRunners. 

We cheer on every new parent who finds the time and energy to run with their kids. And we stand up and cheer like crazy when those same parents run 5K’s, 10K’, Half and Full Marathons sometimes winning not just their age/gender groups but sometimes, beating everybody and coming in first place…with a running stroller!

And how do kids learn that they might love to run, too? KidRunner hosted the Bend Marathon Kids Race; a 1.5 mile race to glory, fueled by chocolate chip cookies, bananas and the occasional pink feather boa!

We’d never hosted an event like this and we didn’t know what to expect. Fifteen minutes before the race, dozens of kids were doing what kids do…rambling around the event playing, laughing and driving their siblings crazy. But that’s the beauty of kids; in the moment energy ready for action.

Within minutes, dozens of kids from 4 years old to 10 years old excitedly assembled with their race bibs; many having requested their favorite numbers and birthday months. Some last minute parent pep talks, one quick diaper change and off they ran! Several minutes later, the race to the finish line was in full force!

 

KidRunner was invented because we think parents, kids and communities feel better when they are doing the things that they love, together.

We know it’s hard to balance everything; especially new parenting with fitness. That’s why we made KidRunner the first hands free jogging stroller. It's the fastest, lightest, easiest to assemble and highest performance running stroller in the world. Run a mile. Run a marathon. Jog or get a personal best. We’ll always cheer you on!
