    People have been jogging with strollers for at least a decade. Is this some kind of new trend, or are they just re-running an old piece to prop-up the profits?

    @Magister: more like over two decades, since the mid-80s. but then they were used by regular people who just into running. that is less than important than whatever rich people find interesting right now.

    Actually, that BOB jogger is pretty awesome! I do run with it, it is harder than running alone, but I can't afford a babysitter, or a gym (with a babysitter) and I talked my MIL into buying it for us as a family gift. It's also the best stroller ever. Also, I'm doing a marathon in 5 weeks! yay me! What was this post about?

    But what of the decidedly portly men who ride New Jersey Transit with large briefcase/suitcase/wheelbarrow push carts that in their haste to run full-out at .05 miles per hour to catch the next damnable train taking them further into the bowels of New Jersey, they simultaneously run over your pinkie toe (in strappy sandals), sexually molest you with their triple-ton girth full of beer and cheese fries, and surely blow pig-aids infused spittle in your direction from the extreme exertion of "big belly/small legs" physical effort, half a masticated cow hovering near their intestines, and the fight to choke back imminent immediate angina...i.e. you've been squashed, stepped on, and practically airlifted back over the bridge to Manhattan where you obviously should have never left.

    Does this qualify as an intense workout?

    @thegreatfratsby: Uh, sorry, but I think these commuter Robeasts should get their own NYT trend piece. If I have to fight one once a week, by God somebody better start talking about it! Yupsters with strollers are nothing compared to a large Jerseyite with a wheeled trunk full of (pot roast?) for a battering ram.

    @Spirit Fingers: I'll one up you. Ever been to Boston? Imagine that Jerseyite with a Boston accent, a volume-control issue, and a haht fulla huht cuz the sahx lost.

    And he's sneezing on you.

    And the train's delayed because Chinatown Station has lit on fire. (This actually happened--FengHua immediately offered to buy it and add it to their bus fleet).

    @thegreatfratsby: The New Jersey PATH train in its entirety.

    Ride during rush hour. It's a savory experience. Rare to find B.O. that potent outside of a 8th grade locker room on turkey sub day. Like being inside a garbonzo beaned armpit.

    I don't think the worst error is when you don't even try... it's when you're a thirty-something-year-old woman still acting like a high schooler just because of tennis.

    Sure, I still run, after the kids are in bed, when it's dark, and dodging texting teen drivers. But I sure as shit don't have time to pose for photographs in front of stunning New England fall foliage.

    Oh, the pressure cooker that the burbs have turned into. Besides not letting your tennis team down, you've GOT to get your kids into the right school, coordinate the maid and lawn service for two houses, and get to the gym before noon. If these women didn't all have law degrees, I don't know how they'd survive.

    She hurt her wrist with Rafael the club tennis pro?? Mmm hmmm, I bet. [winks knowingly]

    But, for real, jogging with those fucking strollers is a killer. I have that one in the photo above, only a goddam DOUBLE, and when I push that thing and my two kids (who weigh probably 45 between them), I feel like my heart and lungs are about to explode at the same time.
