Is there anyone that is completing the run whilst pushing a pram?

I don't push a pram (mine are a bit older!) but I know that it is a common sight to see runners pushing pushchairs at the Saturday parkruns around the country.

Thank you, I'm not alone then.

There was a guy at the Parkrun I went to last week pushing two kids in a buggy. I think it's quite common.

Sounds like a great way to get a bit of a workout for your arms as well as your legs. :)

Should stop you from running too fast though. ;)

oh yes but on the plus side I have a beautiful baby to look at whilst running.

It's good to get 'em started young. ;)

All well and good if you're running with your child in a park but I had some daft woman push her child in a 'jogging' pram in front of my car once when I was turning left at a junction. She had an iPod on and didn't even attempt to look to see if anyone was coming! She didn't even stop just went straight across the road without looking oblivious to everything and everyone around her. Sincerely hope that child is still alive today.
