2x20 mins hard, then a hard day follows

BIKE 1hr 20 mins, about 23.5 miles with a 2x20 min "hard"
SWIM wasgonna...

More rain! Had lots of it lately but I'd been lucky in that I was able to still get stuff done around it. But today it rained in the morning, so I did this ride indoors. Probably better this way anyway, hard to do a solid 20 minutes in town.

I dug out my Stargate DVD set and started watching season 8. I don't know where I left off, what...two years ago now?  Anyway...

The ride was good, and the plan was to swim in the afternoon. But my 11am my tummy started hurting again.  By 1pm I was hiding in the bathroom again to wait it out. Twenty mins later I'm OK! What did I eat? Before was a sweet potato, some melon, some egg white...and I thought it was too much even before the ride. Afterwards it was my Stage 3 smoothie, followed by some kabocha and ghee and egg. I ate this in sort of a hurry and sort of right after the ride. It's gotta be the food before/after a hard workout. I've tested "fasted" training, so I know I don't need to eat so much before hand! And I know I can wait a bit before eating afterwards. I think this is the focus for fixing this issue.

And it came back later in the day, I ended up leaving work early due to the pain and desire to just hide somewhere. Gotta fix this!
