It was fun, although I was used to starting and running in front. Pushing a stroller, I though I shouldn’t start in front this year, because that should be reserved for people actually racing. It took around 2 kilometers to get used to running really slow and just enjoying the run as a family activity instead of a running activity.

Stroller-running at the Singelloop 2025

The biggest challenge was to maneuver the stroller around and past other runners, but I kept in mind that I was the ‘exception’ here and I should watch out, not others. What definitely helped, were all the positive reactions and cheers by other participants and the massive amount of supporters along the route. Thanks, Leiden!
