Kevin took out a lap from each of my last 3 rounds to cut down on the jarring of the running. I'm grateful because I have felt a real fall-off in my (not particularly great to begin with) cardio conditioning. I have done a few bike sessions where I just cannot get my heart rate past about 120. It's like beyond that oxygenation becomes an issue, and I'm not able to push any harder. It is what it is, and I'm sure it's there for a reason, so I just go with it and do my little jog-shuffle and my little paced-out spin class and know that it's better to keep it slow and steady than to risk too little oxygen to the baby.
