This is the brilliant inside story of how Joe Biden won the Democratic nomination and The White House, told by Isaac Dovere, the lead political correspondent for The Atlantic. It begins analysing Obama's legacy inside and outside of the party, includes insights from voters who backed Obama twice and voted for Trump, assesses why candidates like Buttigieg, Bloomberg, Warren and Sanders were unable to defeat Biden... and how popular the politics of AOC and Ilhan Omar are with the wider party. In short, it's a corking summary of an incredible period in American politics.

Will #Google turn the natural search landscape upside down in 2021? It's unlikely. Although change is inevitable, you can survive or even gain an edge with a little vigilance. But don't expect any relief from the merciless #trend of #organicresults moving way down the #SEARCHENGINERESULTSPAGES (#SERPs). Like any good #CONTENTMARKETER, #Google is focused on the needs of its #audience – #searchers. Fortunately, #marketers still see #traffic from #Google and other major #searchengines. #Organicsearches accounted for 53% of #websitetraffic in 2019. To help you manage your #SEO efforts this year, here are 10 QUICK-HIT #SEOTIPS and reminders. Use the #tactics and #insights that best match your #goals. 1. PROTECT YOUR GROUND If you have #pages that already #rank well, guard them. #TRACK THEIR #PERFORMANCE, BUT DON'T GET GREEDY AND MANIPULATE THEM TO SQUEEZE OUT MORE #RANKINGS. 2. CREATE NEW #CONTENT WITH #SEO IN MIND New #content – whether it's one #page or an entire topic cluster – gives you a fresh chance to get everything right 3. Devote time to finding out WHETHER #GOOGLE CRAWLS YOUR #PAGES #GoogleSearchConsole indicates whether #Google has reached your key #pages (and details other technical data). 4. DON'T FREEZE Too often, #marketers crank out #pages, “optimize” them, and never return. While you probably can't do it for every #page, make time to #optimize essential #pages and any #pages close to ranking on the first #page of #Google #searchresults. 5. REMEMBER #QUALITY ISN'T A GUARANTEE OF #SEO SUCCESS #Google has touted for years the importance of producing #quality #websitecontent. In turn, #marketers have championed #quality as the ticket to the high-ranking universe 6. FIND YOUR SWEET SPOT Be #realistic with #keywordchoices. Does it make sense to go after #keywordphrases that are searched 5,000 times a month if your sweet spot shows your existing top 10 #keywords typically are searched 50 to 300 times a month? 7. FOCUS ON #PAGE LOAD SPEED I believe #page load speed is a nominal ranking factor (many enterprise #websitesrank well even if they don't appear as quickly as they should). 8. FAVOR CLEAN, SHORT #URLS #URLs likely still make a slight difference with #searchenginerankings. That's why you should keep them short. Ensure that the few #words you use have the most weight. Don't dilute a #pageURL by loading it with 12 #words from your #headline. 9. #OPTIMIZE IMAGES, FILE NAMES, AND #ALTTEXT You can help #website pages load quickly with small image file sizes. A simple compression tool is ImageOPTIM. BE SURE TO USE #KEYWORDS IN THE FILE NAME AND COMPLEMENT THEM WITH #ALTTEXT. 10.

Team camps can be tricky things - melting pots of egos, injuries and new equipment. The last thing anyone needs is two podcasters turning up to ask inane questions... With that in mind, Ruaridh and Ric went for a behind-the-scenes look at the Chain Reaction Cycles team's annual set-up straightener. They also look ahead to a pro-packed first big UK enduro - the Epic Hope PMBA Enduro (which carries EWS Qualifier status) at the end of the month. Anticipation builds ahead of New Van (better title pending) arriving, Ruaridh opens up about opening up shoulders, Ric retells one of his more spectacular racing disasters and the sporting career of Take That's Mark Owen comes up for debate.

Explore returns with Escape From Lockdown, an episode celebrating the simple joy of riding a bike. The coronavirus pandemic has made it difficult to explore the world on two wheels. Most of the world has experienced lockdown or travel restrictions of some sort and we've all been tethered to home more than usual. For this episode, four riders took advantage of loosening restrictions to go cycling and they ended up enjoying four very different adventures. The result is an hour or so of pure escapism. We'll travel from coast to coast in northern England with Felicity Cloake, join Richard Moore as he tackles his first 100-mile ride in years, go bikepacking and outdoor camping with Ian Boswell and his wife Gretchen, and scale the 1,909m ascent of Mont Ventoux with Hannah Troop and her friend Ollie. Explore by The Cycling Podcast is supported by iwoca (https://www.iwoca.co.uk/?utm_source=google-ads&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=1905711499&ad_group=72226008204&target_id=kwd-42576349472&creative=380202581659&match_type=e&device=c&ad_position=&network=g&feed_item_id=&device_b=desktop&network_b=search&interest_location=&click_location=9046030&keyword=iwoca&device_model=&placement=&placement_cat=&gclid=CjwKCAiA7939BRBMEiwA-hX5J7G2ra602YMYZqDwtZhcDbU9KrM5UHMZkx5My5P7fzatR-dPvNU_-BoCyFEQAvD_BwE) and Science in Sport (https://www.scienceinsport.com/) . HANNAH TROOP'S VOYAGE TO VENTOUX Where was your ride? Montpellier train station to the top of Mont Ventoux and back again... more or less How long was it? Day one: 160km Day two: 70km Day three: 93km When was it? October 8-10 Who were you riding with? My friend Ollie What bike were you riding? My Cannondale Evo What was the terrain like? Mainly road but Komoot took us over some amazing gravel too What are you most glad you took with you? Hannah: A pair of Vibram-soled trainers that could be rolled up easily, and so fit into my handlebar bag without taking up too much room. Also the Rapha Explore down jacket, which packs down into a small bag so doesn't take up a lot of room, but it's so nice to have warm and comfy clothing to change into at the end of a long day on the bike Ollie: Backpack Hannah: I will not accept this answer, I said to Ollie that if he ever came cycling with me again while wearing that backpack, I'd take it off him and burn it. This was explained to him about 155km into the first day of riding, while I was carrying it up a 3km climb that was ramping up to 12%! What do you wish you'd not left behind? Hannah: The outbound route for my Garmin...LOL! And the Garmin mount for the other bike. If there's more than one of you it's great if you can both see the route. It's a huge help having someone else share the navigation. It just lessens the load on your brain once you become fatigued, and it's always good to have two pairs of eyes checking that you're heading in the right direction Ollie: Chamois cream Hannah: Can I add another question? What do you wish you'd left behind? Ollie's 8kg rucksack. Frame bags are definitely the way to go. Cycling with that much weight on your back just makes things so much more hard work. It also means you get a lot more saddlesore. Highlight? Hannah: Has to be ascending Mont Ventoux and reaching the top of a mountain that has so much cycling history encapsulated within its slopes. Taking it all in, while having two hours of being inside your mind and body, experiencing your body go through moments of feeling strong and then moments of struggle. It's a wonderful moment that holds many parallels to life, especially after this year. It was a lovely, albeit hard, moment for reflection Ollie: Descending Mont Ventoux with my partner in crime Lowlight? Hannah: Spectacularly bonking on the third day, while carrying Ollie's 8kg rucksack... Ollie: The nappy rash Hannah and Ollie stayed at La Ferme des Belugues (https://www.lafermedesbelugues.com/) courtesy of Friends of the Podcast Karen and Spencer Martin. RICHARD MOORE'S RIDE PICARDIE Where was your ride? The ride was to Contalmaison from Croissy-sur-Celle via Saint-Just-en-Chaussée, Montdidier and Albert How long was it? 167.96km When was it? August 15 Who were you riding with? It was a solo ride What bike were you riding? Canyon Endurance CF SL Disc 8.0 Pro What was the terrain like? Rolling terrain. No serious climbs but 1,452m elevation What are you most glad you took with you? A face mask What do you wish you'd left behind? About 5kg* of blubber Highlight? Welcome party and picnic in Contalmaison Lowlight? Within five minutes of setting off after lunch a wasp flew into my helmet and stung my head *conservative estimate Sponsor Richard's ride for Pancreatic Cancer UK. (https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-display/showROFundraiserPage?userUrl=RichardMoore1&pageUrl=2) IAN BOSWELL'S BIKEPACKING AND CAMPING Where was your ride? We started at our house in Peacham, Vermont, and stayed the night at Ricker Pond in Groton State forest. How long was it? Only 40 miles, 20 each way When was it? Mid-July Who were you riding with? My wife, Gretchen What bike were you riding? I was on my Specialized Diverge gravel bike, Gretchen was on the Creo e-bike from Specialized What are you most glad you took with you? The s'mores! What do you wish you'd not left behind? I could have used a sleeping bag and sleeping pad. We shared one sleeping pad and I slept using a quick dry towel as my blanket FELICITY CLOAKE'S WAY OF THE ROSES Where was your ride? The Way of the Roses from Morecambe to Bridlington How long was it? Day 1 (Thursday afternoon): 63.6km (Lancaster-Morecambe-Settle) Day 2 (Friday): 72.4km (Settle-Ripon) Day 3 (Saturday): 83.7km (Ripon-Pocklington) Day 4 (Sunday morning): 73.8km (Pocklington-Bridlington) When was it? Early October Who were you riding with? My friend, (annoyingly fit Strava addict) Gemma What bike were you riding? A Condor Fratello by the name of Eddy What was the terrain like? In general, undulating terrain – day two across the Dales was relentlessly hilly, while day three near York was very flat. Some “fun” cross country stuff through muddy fields en route, but mostly on road What are you most glad you took with you? Wet wipes – it was ridiculously wet and muddy on day three and we had to clean ourselves down next to York minster before we could even contemplate going inside for lunch  What do you wish you'd not left behind? While I didn’t use my new winter tights (legs dry quicker than Lycra) I do regret not getting waterproof shoe covers. My feet were VERY soggy for three days straight Highlight? Swooping majestically through the Fountains Abbey estate on the way into Ripon after a hard day in the Dales. Or possibly a large fish and chips in Bridlington Lowlight? Arriving at the B&B just outside Pocklington in the dark absolutely soaked through to find nowhere to dry our stuff and nowhere nearby to eat. Pretty dispiriting getting back into the soggy gear and on to the bikes in the storm

This is the special Marathon Edition of the Women's Running podcast. On Sunday 4th October Esther, along with 43,000 others, ran the virtual London Marathon. Two women who also ran it were Deborah James and Emma Campbell, both of whom have been on the podcast before. This time we wanted to talk to them both about our experiences running our virtual races. They ran together, supporting each other every step of every mile, while raising money for their beloved Royal Marsden, a hospital that has supported and cared for them so much. You can still donate to their justgiving pages, so please do so with the links below. They talk with me here about the importance of their chosen charity, and also Deb's history with the London Marathon, the power of giant Wotsits, and the sheer joy of our virtual races. We also discuss our next racing highlight – the Vitality 10K, which you can sign up to as well before 23rd October. Again the link is below. Plus there's some proper, tangible advice on running your next marathon right here, and it involves pants.Sign up to the virtual Vitality 10K hereDonate to Deb hereDonate to Em hereSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=67575412) Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Racing is about to re-start. The Vuelta a Burgos gets underway next Tuesday and the first major stage race on the calendar in more than four months features a high quality field, including Nairo Quintana, Remco Evenepoel, Richard Carapaz and the Yates brothers, Simon and Adam. Lionel Birnie, Daniel Friebe and Richard Moore look ahead to Burgos and pick out one thing each that fascinates them about the resumption of racing. For Daniel, it's whether Quintana can maintain the form that he showed early in 2020, when he appeared re-born with his new team, Arkéa-Samsic. For Richard, it's the Ineos intrigue with Chris Froome and Egan Bernal potentially in the same Tour de France team. And for Lionel it's the fact that almost an entire season is crammed into a little more than three months – how will it all work and what patterns might emerge?

In this Episode I talk with Mark McGuire, an incredible man who ran 30 Marathons in 30 days in memory of his best friend Ben Forsyth.Ben tragically passed away in 2018 due to an underlying heart condition, and Mark decided to raise awareness for the charity C.R.Y by putting himself out of his comfort zone and running an unbelievable 786 miles whilst raising over £23,000. This is a story of resilience, love, hope, emotion and the utmost brain power and strength to make it through. I got chills listening to Mark's story and believe he is a true inspiration to all of us.

What is it like to participate in the world’s toughest ski race? Would you be up for the challenge? Listen in as I tell you all about it and take you through the journey! Who knows? The Arctic Circle Race just might be the next extreme adventure you’re looking for! Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The Arctic Circle Race and why we did it How we prepared for the race My thoughts on the journey What the experience was like Key Takeaways: Both mental and physical endurance are very much needed to take on this kind of challenge. Incredibly powerful things happen when you push yourself into your discomfort zone. You don’t have to go as big as we’ve gone with The Arctic Circle Race, it might be learning an instrument, going online dating, learning a new language, or playing a sport. Taking on a challenge and achieving something is good for your confidence and your resilience. You get a bit more comfortable in very uncomfortable situations. You feel a little more comfortable with unpredictability, and life is unpredictable. A key part of resilience is not your toughness. It’s not what you can endure. It’s more around if you have the tools to cope with the various things that life throws at you and the emotional bandwidth to deal with them. Action Steps: If you are doing a fundraising event, set a really big target and don’t be afraid to ask people to support you. Do something that takes you into your discomfort zone. Have a think about what that thing might be and make sure it’s the appropriate level of challenge at the appropriate time. Leanne said: “[The Arctic Circle Race] is absolutely brutal. It’s the most extraordinary challenge. It’s more like the world’s toughest herring boning and walking race with bits of skiing.” “If you feel that life is pretty smooth and you want to test yourself in some way, then start to look at what you can do. Kick some ideas around.” Thanks for listening! If you want to ask any questions about this, give any feedback, or perhaps kick out some suggestions for future events that we could do or that you’re thinking of doing, we’d love to hear from you!

"No one thinks they'll get cancer...especially not at 33. It really does not fit in with life as a working mum of two under 5's, but I did it and sadly there is no big medal given for completing treatment - so off I go in search of something that will" Rebekah shares her incredible story of battling breast cancer and now being just weeks away from running her first ever marathon, less than 12 months after completing radiotherapy.

What does it mean to be a business athlete? And what is the “energy jar”? Take a listen and find out how these concepts can apply to you. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The concept of the “energy jar” What it means to be a “business athlete” How I’ve been preparing for the Arctic Circle Race Key Takeaways: The energy jar is a metaphor for the amount of energy that we have in our body. Our energy is a finite resource. The energy we have in our body is just in one place. We haven’t got separate pockets of energy that we can distribute or dip into. We need to see ourselves as business athletes. Action Steps: Take a look at your schedule, understand what are the peak points for you, and then figure out how you can get yourself fit so you can be in your prime when that peak time comes. After that peak period, take a little bit of time off and start to do more fun, relaxing things. Do lots of active rest. Don’t hit the gym as hard, and let your body recover. Learn to adapt your schedule according to how you’re feeling. Leanne said: “Why so many of us are falling out of love with life, why many of us are experiencing chronic stress, many of us are experiencing burnout, and that’s simply because we are not planning and pacing ourselves.” “If you start to think of yourself as a business athlete, then I think you’re going to start looking at things in a more intelligent way.” Thanks for listening!

An exceptional runner Matthew has taken his marathon running from 3:18 to sub 2.59, then taking on a coach he leap frogged his performance down to 2:44 in a very short period of time. He was there when it happened, Boston 2018 where he amazingly ran another sub 3 marathon in the worst possible weather conditions that could be thrown at you during a race. His Sub 2:45 time has opened the door to London 2019 where he has set the goal of running a world record for the fastest marathon time dressed as a letterbox. So why would you do such a crazy challenge well there is a very good reason, Matthew is hoping that through his race that he will bring awareness and help to raise funds for Dementia. This is a serious disease that can effect a third of the elderly population, there is a stigma around this which Matthew is hoping to break down as awareness often leads to prevention. You can support Matthew by helping his London Fundraiser for Dementia on the following link; https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-display/showROFundraiserPage?userUrl=postbox&pageUrl=1&fbclid=IwAR3NKkYDf65JphW3lHhgoZPMQzVv0RWE9fbf_yQR5kjR7bT3iPo5HJlyhf4
