I love BOB strollers and think they are the only stroller you need. They fold up & fit into any sized car and are perfect for the terrain around town & the BOB Revolution with its pivot front wheel can fit into ANY store in downtown Flagstaff- even the dualie (trust me, I've tried). And then, you can lock down that pivot wheel for Stroller Strides class.

At one of the many recent weddings I've been to, I was asked by a pregnant friend if she could get by with only buying one stroller and I went on for a LONG time about how I only have my BOB & have never had a problem. I think she thought I was a bit crazy, but with the carseat adapter you can start using your BOB as soon as your baby is born. Hopefully, it is obvious from this picture that Lily loves BOB too.

Our friends at BOB are holding a contest for a free BOB stroller. All you need to do is submit a video of your giggling baby- the best video wins! Check it out!!

If you don't win the contest head on down to Absolute Bikes & get yourself a BOB- yes, they are expensive, but they have amazing resale value- a quick look at Craigslist shows them being sold for about $100 off the original price! What other piece of baby equipment could you say that about? Support our local businesses- they are the same price online & you can have it NOW!! Zen Baby also sells BOB strollers.

Please don't think my love of BOB came about because of Stroller Strides' partnership with the company- my relationship with Stroller Strides actually came about because of my love of BOB- seriously..

So, I've professed my love for BOB before- and let me assure you, this love did not come as a result of BOB's partnership with Stroller Strides, in fact, this partnership was just another PLUS for me to get involved with Stroller Strides.

And even better ALL BOB's are on sale, 10% off, at Absolute Bikes through August 15th. Just imagine, all of the color choices you want, an opportunity to test them out before buying AND getting to walk out of the store with it that day, ALL while supporting a locally owned business.

Ahhh September- the month of back to school, the county fair, apples & FREE BOB STROLLERS!

Yes, FREE.

Thanks to the amazing generosity of Absolute Bikes, N. AZ's largest BOB retailer, we have a free, brand-new BOB stroller to give away to the mom/dad/caregiver who attends the most Stroller Strides/Fit4Baby classes this month.


- Attend as many classes as possible, make sure you sign-in as that will be our record of attendance!

- Refer a friend to class (they have to sign up for their free class online & attend class, they don't have to buy a membership) and earn an extra day of attendance. 1 friend = 1 class

- In case of a tie, we will hold a raffle between moms to determine the winner

Good Luck Mamas! Come get fit at Stroller Strides (and win awesome prizes!)
