It’s so fun to be out on the Nordic trails with our little one. The KidRunner is lighter than other carriers so we are able to skate ski more efficiently. Going out for family skates together has been so enjoyable! We definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an ergonomic way to pull their kiddo on the cross country ski trails.
Emily: Thanks for the great review and photos. It's everything we invented KidRunner SKI for! Will W. CEO/Founder
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!
Krista: Great to hear from you and thanks for the kind words...and the great picture! We can't wait for SKI season too and keep us posted! Will W. CEO/Founder
This chariot, with the single pivot connector is hands down the best way to share your love of running and skiing with your little ones! I have always loved skiing and running but being able to share it with my daughter is priceless, thank you KidRunner!!!
Thanks, Kyle and your co-pilot! It's been really fun watching you two get after it with your new KidRunner Multisport, RUN + SKI. You both embody why worked so hard to make this possible. We wanted to keep doing what we love but we wanted to do it together with our kids. Thanks for being part of it with us!
Unfortunately where I live snow conditions are terrible this year. So we were only able to go out once with the kidrunner ski so far. It was very easy to switch from run to ski. The replacement plastic windshield is a great improvement from the one my kidrunner came with. The one time we went out it was great fun! My son is only one and isn't too heavy yet but going up hills was still a good challenge! My husband and I took turns towing him since neither of us are great skiers. Hopefully we will be able to go back out this season.
Kally: Thanks for being part of our KidRunner SKI launch!
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
Cristian: We're watching your epic trip across Colombia! Good luck and we are cheering you on. We're always here to help so keep us posted if you need anything. Viva!
I love to exercise and be outside with my family. KidRunner Ski allows us
to enjoy time together and get in a great workout. KidRunner is the
lightest and highest-performing product on the market. With a single
connection point to the waist it allows you to ski without adjusting your
poling. We have traveled with our KidRunner to enjoy family ski trips to
SilverStar, Methow Valley, Sweeden, Vermont, Michigan and Wisconsin.
KidRunner allows us to continue adventuring and our active lifestyle with
our little one and show them the importance and joy of nature.
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.
We love this feedback! You all have nailed why we worked so hard to reinvent stroller running. Pushing strollers causes injuries, bad running form and is really inefficient. For many new parents, pushing a stroller becomes the end of their running lives. Thanks for sharing your experience with others!
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!
I was gifted a Kidrunner when my baby was around 8 months old. Prior I was using a running stroller for walks and runs with him. The Kidrunner was such a game changer for us! My husband and I both loved to use it and we love that it’s hands free! Our son also loved riding around in it which allowed us to get a good run in and for him to enjoy it! The Kidrunner has been such a blessing to us with our first baby. It has allowed us to take care of our mental health with running and being outside while also taking our baby along. We’ve created the best memories. Thanks so much for this amazing product and awesome customer service.
Thanks! It was great to connect with you on the phone and learn more about you, your family and your running. We appreciate the great review and keep us posted. We are always here to help. All the best, Will W. CEO/Founder
Product is fine but I think you should open some kind of store in Europe. The reason why I am writing that because in total cost for my KidRunner was actually 1300$. I had to pay shipping which I knew it was alot but then I also had to pay custom when it came to Croatia. Maybe in future you can avoid that by splitting the shipping cost from product because they calculated shipping too.
BR, Filip
Filip: Thanks for the great review and the encouragement to sell directly to our European customers. We agree! We're always looking for partners.
I absolutely LOVE my KidRunner! It is so lightweight, comfortable and easy to use. From my first run with it I knew it would get lots of use. Sure enough, I’ve been using it 5 days a week for the last month. It frees my hands so I can now take my other two kiddos in a double stroller too! I’m so grateful I found KidRunner- the customer service with Will is awesome, he’s super kind and I’m thrilled to have joined the KidRunner family. It’s perfect for my 1.5year old and my 4 year old. Even my 6 year old gets a turn! They love the views with the wide windows, and I love to see their comfort as they drift off to sleep! Thanks KidRunner for an awesome product for running parents!
Thanks, Michelle! Your story makes everything we do and why we do it worth it.
I am so grateful for the kidRunner. I was just having the hardest time hitting my times, kept getting side stitches, just so awkward to run with a stroller. Now, I am cruising! I am so happy to be running like the old me, even with a baby and 3 dogs in tote!
My son reminds me every day to go outside and run so he can ride in the KidRunner. While I run, he keeps yelling, "Faster! How can I say no, so I run!
My only regret is that I didn’t buy it sooner. My daughter (2.5 yr old) HATES to ride in a stroller! From the moment I unpacked my kid runner she was in the cockpit ready to go! I literally had to assemble it with her inside the cockpit. My husband had to lift the cockpit so I could put the wheels on because she was so excited! Finally I can get some much needed exercise!
Thank you for the constant communication and the new cover. It's been great, and I really like this new design. Won't have to worry about any tears! My little guy still loves it, always climbing in even when it's not time to run.
Running brings me joy, peace, and health. After my children were born I needed running more ever. Pushing a heavy jogging stroller never made sense to me, especially as a physical therapist. KidRunner gives you the freedom to use your upper body… no more pushing with inefficient running form. And thankfully it is not just me who is happy with our KidRunner, my son is too! He loves to grab his snacks, hop in, and watch the world go by. He never sat still in a normal stroller and is much more content to see me running in his line of sight. Thank you Will and all those at KidRunner for making this excellent product and bringing the joy back to running with my kiddos!
I asked for a kidrunner for Christmas 2018, and one half, lots of 5ks, and innumerable fun runs later, we still love our kidrunner.
I’m just a fun runner, and my mile time is far from my college PRs, but this stroller made it easy for me to get out and about with my daughter from 6mo on. We live in a city (no garage) and it’s been well worth the space.
I am stopped nearly every time I’m out to ask what the name of my stroller is and if it’s easier than pushing a running stroller - be prepared for lots of high fives!
