I have recently been enjoying killing the grocery bird and the jogging bird with the same stone. In short, I find it useful to jog to the grocery store. It is a 4-mile trip to and from the nearest grocery store in our neighborhood. I tend to enjoy this most early in the morning before the sun comes up. There is a feeling you get of simple accomplishment when you succeed in such a task. However, some issues tend to diminish those nice feelings along the way. If you take an empty baby stroller to carry the food items home in, you get some strange looks from people - both as you run with an empty stroller on the way there and with milk jugs strapped in the harness on the way back.
I was thinking the other morning, "there must be a better way." Someone must have invented this by now. A little searching on the web left me with much to be desired. "There is the Chariot." you might say. Well, that is built to carry kids and comes along with a lot of accessories that I simply don't need. What I need is a light bin, like those plastic ones you see at Walmart on a two-wheel, aluminum chassis with a bar that extends up to one side of my trunk (torso). No need for two bars, no need for straps and pockets. Just need to put goods in the bin and jog home.
Someone needs to invent that. It would be me if I had the time.
