Last night Brian and I made some covers for the straps at Carter's head so that his head won't rub against the buckles. We used 30 mm thick foam and some velcro with glue on the back side. Here's a picture with one of the covers on and the other off.
The covers seem to work well. Carter's head looked fine after the run (no big red spots). We did 2.25 miles and Carter did fine the entire run. I wish we lived somewhere flat though! Hills are just that much more challenging now! We live at the highest point in our neighborhood - running away from the house isn't bad but getting back is hard.
I like the stroller though. It handled well. I'm figuring out how to turn it with the fixed front wheel. If you want to go right, you push down on the left side and pull back a little on the right. I'm still lifting up the front wheel a little sometimes but I think I'll get better with practice. It may also be easier when Carter is heavier.
