KidRunner on Shark Tank
This week on Shark Tank, Will Warne pitched his new contraption for toting along a child while running. He calls his product the KidRunner. Having purchased a few of these myself, I was curious about his solution. Based on his presentation, the product looked pretty good. But the Sharks hated his “Go to market…
