Bob Revolution SE is a perfect single jogging stroller that capable to deliver dual functions both for indoor and outdoor use. And yes, a baby should at least have a stable neck control before s/he can ride on a jogging stroller (8-12 m.o, depends on the child). Here's the link in case you want to find out more objective reviews about the stroller: http://jogging-stroller-reviews.net/bob-revolution-se-stroller-reviews/

I have a firm "dont' get passed by anyone pushing a stroller" rule.

I occasionally run with a stroller and sometimes race with them too. I do NOT start at the front with the stroller. At the same time it sucks having to weave through a bunch of people when I start at the back too. My only consolation is that it's sometimes gratifying to see the look of incredulity on people's face as I pass them pushing both my kids.

As for how it impacts your running, well, you will be slower, you can't use your arms, and it will shorten your stride (which for me was a good thing). You will feel like a rocket without the stroller though!

+1 on this. When I run with the stroller I only use one hand to push it. I cannot run comfortably with both hands on it. As one arm gets tired I will switch to the other arm. On the other hand, when my wife runs with the stroller she uses both hands to push it.
