My baby just turned a year in the beginning of June so I’ve started taking running seriously again. I’m basically starting from square one (even tho I was super close to running a half marathon pre pregnancy, long runs of 8-12 miles).
I need help with a running stroller. I have the UPPAbaby ridge but it’s not my favorite and the leg rest gets hot in the sun ( stationed in San Diego county so sun and hot weather is absolutely not going anywhere).
Anyone have any advice on strollers for someone training for a half marathon and eventually a marathon? Baby is only 20 pounds at the moment but over 2.5 feet tall already.

My MIL ( who I’m not taking to and haven’t for 3 months) decided she finally understand we have a life of our own and can’t go to their house, that’s 2 hours away every weekend like she expected us too. I have a newly one year old and she expected to see him every weekend. We live 2 hours away from them. But anyway, since she didn’t get what she wants she got a puppy. A small, pug mix of some kind.
This only makes me visit less because now I have to worry about a puppy biting and scratching my child while I’m there because they don’t train their dogs.
I have 2 older dogs (6 and 4 years old) that are super sweet with our son so we don’t worry about them ( they are still supervised always as I am aware dogs have minds of their own).
I don’t understand why she thought getting a puppy would make us want to visit more.
Ugh.

I will start by saying my MIL always gets her way and I didn’t really care until she started disrespecting me as my son’s mother.
Just a few a the big things:
-She invited people over to see my baby while she was babysitting without asking me, in the peek of cold and flu season. He was only 4 months old at the time.
- they manipulated my husband into giving them my sons ssn so they could apply for the trump account after we had said no
- she threw a fit and said some pretty hurtful things after we told her we weren’t having a first birthday party for our son because she wanted one.

The trying to guilt trip us into having a party was the last straw for me and I went nc.

Well last night she sends me “you will regret this”.
Today was my husband’s cousin’s engagement party. Well after the text last night I didn’t let MIL anywhere near baby really and she definitely didn’t get to hold him.

She decided she wanted to have a conversation after the party at her house, it as you probably are thinking, didn’t go well and she stormed off after about 5 minutes. I tried to explain to her that she made me feel disrespected as my son’s mother by all the things she’s done. One of the lines she used at the end was “ well you get all the decisions now”, well yeah I’m his mother. Dad does get input for those of you wondering about him hahaha. He and I talk about everything related to our son and make a decision together.
