KidRunner RUN™

Throughout a lot of 2024, I was running about 25 miles/week with a very nice running jogger. That's about all the more mileage I could stand with the poor form that comes with pushing a jogger. I can already tell that the KidRunner is going to change that for 2025.

After getting used to the KidRunner for just two weeks, I can run much longer and faster than with a jogger. For instance, sub 8 min./mile for 6 miles with a jogger would be a struggle for me, but I can easily do that with the KidRunner. It also handles dirt roads much better than our high end jogger or multisport trailer with jogging attachment. That opens up a lot of new terrain! Our copilot seems quite happy in the cockpit and often falls asleep within the first half mile.

Hopefully constructive criticism:
I'd love to see better sun shade options, easier to snap buckles, and quicker assemble/disassembly options. But overall, I'm really happy a product like this exists! It's a game changer for my husband and I as we try to ramp up milage for the 2025 trail racing season. I'd highly recommend it to any semi serious runners out there.

We are SO excited to use our Kidrunner to take our little one with us on runs, walks, bikes, and snow adventures! Only one problem, when we opened the box to put everything together, one of the bolts with the red ball on the end was missing!! Now we can't use our Kidrunner.

We love the KidRunner so far! Have only used it a couple times as our daughter is still quite small, but the size and weight compared to others on the market is unbeatable!! Customer service is phenomenal and they are willing to help with anything!! So excited for ski season!

I have only had the KidRunner for a little while now but I really enjoy running with my son! It wouldn’t be possible without it! Before I discovered it, the jogging stroller I had, was really hard to steer and was way heavier to push. He also really likes it and he smiles and laughs when we go out. It really makes a difference in my ability to actually run. Thank you!! I am actually training for my first postpartum marathon thanks to the amazing carriage! I seriously thought I lost my running identity. I can’t express my gratitude enough!

My toddler meets daddy at the door with his running shorts after work and they are both so excited to get out for a run before dinner together! I was skeptical of the comfort and ease but my husband absolutely loves it and prefers it over a jogger stroller all the way. It was the perfect Fathers day gift! Thank you.

I will run 442 km for 9 days in Colombia, on December 9, I will take my Kid’runner in to the extreme use, I will run for the wounded people of the army, who lost their legs. At the moment I enjoy it. 🏃‍♂️ thanks

What a great asset to running with your kid tagging along. I hate running with only one arm free and this certainly does the trick. The only changes I’d like to see are some adjustments for us tall folks (I’m 6’4”) and the option to open up the side windows or remove the cover exposing a caged seat. I think the air circulation could be better for hotter days especially here in Florida. Nonetheless, I love it!!!

The KidRunner was purchased to provide our athletic clients/patients an additional option to their endurance training programs. We realized most runners and triathletes did not know about the capabilities of the KidRunner. It provides hands free running and limits overuse injuries of the shoulder and scapula, it assists with running gait modifications, and improving runners ground reaction contact times much like a speed treadmill can. We highly recommend the KidRunner to our clients/patients seeking to continue an active lifestyle.

Our Kidrunner Gen1 got a bit of a battle scar on the cockpit cover recently. I reached out to Will and he was kind enough to look for a Gen1 cover for us even though they are no longer manufacturing the Gen1. He managed to find one for us and we are so thankful! We have had our kid runner since 2020 and used it with our then 1 year old. At 4 now he still goes for runs in it, and his little sister (9 months) has also recently taken her first ride in the Kidrunner. We will use this for many years to come. Such a smart product for parents who love to run.

My wife bought this for me in preparation for our 2nd child's arrival (I believe she wanted me to run more with our two year old). I am a 30-35 mile per week runner and was curious how this would work. I am now six runs in (all 6 mile runs) and it has been great! Customer support (responded timely!) helped me get the runner set up correctly and now it glides very well. There are some hills in my area and I dread them every run because you do notice the increased weight, but have noticed that I am now much faster when I run without the stroller (10 seconds per mile faster so far without the kid runner). The product is well made and easy to break down. My copilot loves it. I talked it up before its arrival that it was a big girl stroller just for her and she loves it. Some suggestions: manage expectations with your copilot. I let my 2 year old know we have to run first, then we will stop at a playground on our run. Also, provide snacks, a book, and water for them to play with. The zippered front keeps everything in so you don't need to worry about them throwing anything out, great feature.
I love that this runner is slim! It fits on the narrow paths (pictured below) that neighbor some area roads. Just a great product I can't say enough about. Excited to let my copilot get even more blueberry and strawberry stains on the seat!
