Question for runners

DerbyBaby205

My SO and I are both runners. We are looking at jogging strollers, particularly the BOBs, and are wondering how important is having a handbrake? We live in a moderately hilly area and there is no escaping a big one right outside our front door. The ones that have hand brakes also have fixed front wheel tires which would limit the overall use value of the stroller.  So we are trying to figure out what is necessary. Any advice?  Thank you!!
