So after training with Coach Beth awhile she convinced me to do a 5K last fall – finished, not fast, but finished. Took some time off due to bad weather but now its a new year and I have recommitted to running! And what does a runner need? A faster stroller!
We have so dearly loved our workhorse, Zooper Boogie, and it was ok for trots and trails. But now I want to go fast. And farther. And actually lose 20 more pounds (in addition to the first 30 that Beth helped me lose, thanks Beth and Boogie!).
Now we are the proud owners of a Dreamer Design Mahanttan Lite – still needed that swivel wheel, and the 16″ back wheels and lightness of the stroller are awesome. It is light, maneuverable and while we are a slow team, the ride is smooth andbaby girl WANTS to ride in it, excellent purchase.
We have just finished, that is me and baby girl our first 5K together in the Dreamer – rain and wind did not stop us. Excellent stroller. I have now committed to another 5K and a 1/2 marathon in celebration of Mother’s Day, but will not drag baby girl through 13 miles of hills and weather.
And, I have finally lost 53 or 55 baby gain pounds!
