Jogging Stroller for Serious Runners

I have taken up running and I am now at the point where my cheap jogger is not working out well for me and my toddler. I run 15 to 20 miles a week. Any suggestions? I am looking at the BOB Ironman, the BOB Sport Utility Stroller and the Joovy Zoom 360. I would like something that is comfortable for my toddler since my Baby Trend from 6 years ago is not cutting it...... I run on pavement and on dirt paths that sometimes have gravel. Thank you for your suggestions and experiences!

What can I do next?

I have 2 Chariot strollers that are 2-seaters. I have the Cougar and just bought a Cabriolet. I love that they are enclosed, have a weather and sun protector, and are well secured. It folds flat in my car or on top on my racks. I can also attach it to my bike and trailer my kiddos. I have had my first Chariot for 7 yrs and it is in awesome shape. I bought the Chariot Cabriolet to run with and to pull behind my husband's bike with our new little girl. The tires are perfect for all terrain and I often take it "off road."

I LOVED my Baby Jogger. I know they aren't the cool thing. But, if you run at the beach, those tires ROCK!

I definitely second the BOB! The tires and pin for the front wheel to make it stable or turning are all great, and it's made for someone who is out running on different terrain. I have the double, and you can even jog with it -and it's HUGE! A single BOB would be great!

We have the BOB revolution and I would assume the ride is the same with both of the BOBs you are looking at. It's great! Easy to push, even through grass or rough terrain (if you decide to run on dirt trails, etc), sturdy, comfortable (per DS who still gets into it every so often).

i have the double bob and run with it all the time and walk around my (very hilly) town with it too. sooooo smooth. i can even push it on the sand. i think the revolutions have a front wheel that swivels, whereas the ironman may not. swivel is good.
