Can I go running with a Bugaboo Bee?

I'd like a buggy that I can use for occasional short runs, maybe once or twice a week, running for 20-30 mins. Would it be a bad idea to buy a Bee? I need something compact and lightweight, so a Bee is a good size for me.

No you can't...As above post says the wheels wobble like crazy...Plus it tells you on the handle strap it's not a jogging buggy and neither are Frogs or Cameleons...I've seen a woman jogging with a Quinny Buzz though, a few times and DH has seen her as well.

Crikey no no no!! I've run with mine if I have been late/come out without raincover/need to get home for a wee but certainly not to actually plan to go out for a run!! Same with my cam but no, would not go for a run if all I had was bee or cam.

You need a 3 wheeler, guessing you have a main pushchair, don't get me wrong you would prob be better to sell what you have and buy a bee but then get a cheap 3 wheeler for running. You can normally get a mothercare 3 wheeler v v cheap on ebay as they are huge folded and weigh a ton but fix the wheel and for occasional runs fine.

I bought one for 30 quid off ebay with all the access which I sold for more than I paid for the buggy then sold that when I was done with it (wanted a cheap 3 wheeler for the beach as we live by the sea for my then 2 and a half year old)

Oh how annoying. Choosing the right buggy is such a pita, isn't it? Well thanks all for advice, you given some really useful advice.
