My husband and I had a jogging stroller when our oldest son was younger, and we loved it! So when we found out we where having another we knew that a jogging stroller was something that we wanted again.
We decided on the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller. We bought ours from zulily but they sell the stroller at other places like Target.com, Jeepworld.com, Overstock.com, Diapers.com and a few other places.
We have not received it yet but here are some of the things that we liked about it our: It's a single stroller that will accept most major brand infant car seats. It has a reclining seat, 5 point harness, 2 parent cup holders with a MP3 compatible area or storage, 1 child cup holder, storage underneath, swivel/locking front wheel, foot break, adjustable handle, and it hold children up to 60lb.
When we the stroller, I will update this post with how easy it was to put together and how we like it.
These pictures our from the internet for now till I can take some of my own!

EEEKKK the stroller was delivered today and I am so excited to see it!
It comes in a few pieces, but noting to small and only two screws need to be up in. The directions are pretty easy to read and I spent all of maybe 15 min putting the stroller together and I'm 30 weeks prego. Most of the pieces just snap into place, like the back wheels, the parent tray. You will need one philips screwdriver and a couple of wrenches. The wrenches are to put on and tighten the front swivel wheel.
Tad-da, all done!
My first impressions:
Their are no retailers that had this stroller in person so this is the first time we got our hands. It's a very nice looking stroller. It's sturdy, but not to heavy. The front swivel wheel is great and the stroller can turn around in small spaces. My husband was pleasantly surprised with the stroller also.
I really like the parent tray! Im not sure how often I will use the MP3 player part but it's a nice option. What's really nice in my opinion is that you can remove the iBaby part and have just an empty compartment to hold stuff in (shown in the picture on the right). The parent tray was one of the parts that you snap on when you first get the stroller, so if you are not a big fan of having it i assume you can just not install it. You can probably even snap it off if you find you don't like it after.
The stroller has a good amount of cargo space. The picture on the left shows a net pouch on the inside of the stroller where the child sits. Their is one on each side. The picture on the right shows the cargo space underneath the stroller. It snaps on the back part which I think will be nice for cleaning it out or whipping it down.
The stroller will accept most major infant carseats. The red straps our to secure the car seat to the stroller. They store nicely on the side of the stroller out of the way and un-notaceble.
Their is also a break bar that you can use with one foot. Our older jogger stroller had individual breaks for each tire and they where pretty rough so you could not use your foot to lock and un-lock it so I'm pretty happy about this break.
The bar is easy to open to let children in and out of the stroller.
On each side their is a grey button you push and the bar opens.
It also comes with a removable child cup holder.
The rear wheels are quick release so you can quickly remove them for storage or travel. The tires are air filled. In not sure if it's the same connection as a bike tire, but I think it might be.
The stroller folds up nicely for storage.
