[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]City dweller here. While your preschooler might be capable of walking the distance you need to commute, don’t you ever find yourself needing to commute somehow *quickly*? That is when the stroller really comes in handy. Sure your 4 year old can walk 5 miles, but can he do it in a timely fashion?[/quote] No one is walking five miles “quickly.”[/quote] My 4 year old knows to walk with purpose when we're in a hurry. We love taking leisurely exploration walks, but we're long past the toddler days of needing to inspect every object on the sidewalk when we need to be someplace. We have a .75 mile walk to preschool every day that takes us exactly 15 minutes when we need it to.[/quote] When are you walking 5 miles quickly? I walk just about everywhere but 5 miles isn't a quick walk. I've walked the whole Capital Crescent Trail and that's 8 miles, but you don't walk from Georgetown to Bethesda unless you're doing that on purpose. I've done a long hike with my toddler but I put him in the hiking backpack after a couple miles. [/quote]
