Training, racing, and gearing up for Worlds

Written By Kim Manunui

For the month of July I started off with 6 days of track racing in Podenzano, Italy. The racing was extremely valuable and I learnt so much (especially in the Madison event) that I hope to apply in the race at Worlds. After that we relocated to Varese, Italy where we spent 1.5 weeks training on the road and getting some heat stress with temps at 30 degrees + most days! I completed a couple of really good vo2 sessions which gave me a lot of confidence for the pre worlds track training camp in Switzerland.

We then relocated to Switzerland on the 18th of July and joined up with the rest of the track team (sprinters & mens endurance). Our team pursuit was absolutely flying! We did a 4km team pursuit simulation in a time of 4.10.7mins which we were super proud of and really happy to see all the hard work we had all done coming through. I also did a 3 minute power test and achieved my best ever power. It gave me a lot of confidence in my ability and form for the individual pursuit race at Worlds.

We then travelled to Glasgow for final preparations for the Track Cycling World Champs starting on the 3rd of August.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
