Rockstar Triathlete Dariana Cardelino
Coaches Notes: Dariana is such an inspiration with how far she has come in such a short period of time. Her smile and enthusiasm for the training is what makes this sport seem easy for her. Without any experience, she listens and applies what we suggest and the results speak for themselves. It’s tough to be a young triathlete and most 20 somethings do not have patience for this sport because it takes more time and dedication.
I’m so proud of the amazing goals you have achieved and Ironman will be in your pocket soon. Be patient and keep getting stronger and faster before going long! Keep Tri-ing!

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?
ENG. Every year I commit to something that would enhance my personal development and health, but in the past I used to quit very easy if I didn’t have a clear short and long term goal. I am from Caracas Venezuela, and there I used to have a group of people that would go out and train with me, but here it was very difficult to find a good group. I ran in 2016 Michelob Ultra half marathon Ft. Lauderdale, for which I trained on my own, and after the race I completely quit training. This year I wanted to make some changes regarding my goals, and one of them was to FIND AN AWESOME GROUP. After looking into several groups in Miami, and asking about them to people that are into this “triathlon world”, I came across Full Circle, and that was it! I cannot be HAPPIER to have joined an amazing family that has become part of my life. It is a big change to have the encouragement, daily motivation, and the partnership we have in Full Circle. I have learned so much from everyone’s achievements and mistakes and “TriLife experiences” and everyday for me it is easier to wake up and train and keep it going race after race.
SPA. Mi principal meta al iniciar con FullCircle era conseguir un buen grupo con el que me sintiera como en casa y del cual pudiera aprender y compartir experiencias. Antes de FullCircle siempre me trazaba metas muy claras pero al finalizarlas, dejaba la rutina muy facilmente. Este año, despues de casi 3 años sin hacer nada y abandonar mi rutina de ejercicios, decidí conseguir un buen grupo para poder lograr mantenerme en el camino a largo y corto plazo, y así apareció FullCircle después de haber investigado a casi todos los grupos de triatlones en Miami. En definitiva, ser parte de esta increible familia, ha sido una de las mejores experiencias en mi vida. Es más facil con ellos sentirte comprometido con tus metas, ir a entrenar temprano, cumplir contigo mismo. He aprendido de los logros y los errores de los demás en el grupo y sin duda, no hay precio que supere ser parte de tan increible familia.
What is your “A” race for this season? Esape to Miami – International Distance
Please share your BIG goals: My biggest goal is to become an Ironman by next year. I don´t know which one yet. But that is the ultimate goal and the reason I´ve been training and signing up for short races this year.
SPA. Mi meta final es poder completar un IRONMAN 70.3 el año que viene y es la razón por la cual estoy entrenando duro este año y me he inscrito en varias carreras cortas.
Tell me about your successes so far: My biggest success so far with Full Circle was completing my first Triathlon EVER in 1 hour and 21 minutes, with just 3 months of training. I placed 5th in my age group and 35 over 169 people in Mighty Mujer Triathlon. I felt so confident in the swim (I have never swam in a race before) and in the Bike that was my biggest fear, is not anymore, thanks to my training program and the support of my coaches and team. I am so excited and looking forward to PR in my next races.
SPA. Mi mayor logro hasta ahora con el equipo ha sido completar mi primer sprint triatlon con menos de 3 meses de entrenamiento, quedando en 5to lugar en mi grupo de edad y de 35 overall. También un gran logro ha sido superar el miedo a la bicicleta, siendo ahora una de las disciplinas que más me gusta gracias al apoyo de mis entrenadores y grupo.
What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved:
FORM: I thought I knew how to run, until I went to Erinne. My performance videos from before and after, and my overall performance, has nothing to do with before. It is a process I respected from the beginning and brought me huge positive changes. Same on the Swim, swimming is all about form, coach Erinne and Daniela have been helping me improve my form, and now I feel confident in the water.
SPA. Es impresionante los cambios que se pueden ver en la velocidad y en el redimiento durante una corrida y nadando cuando alguien experto te enseña cómo hacerlo. Erinne y Dany ,e han ayudado a mejorar mi forma en ambas disciplinas y hoy puedo decir que con solo tres meses de entrenamiento, el desarrollo ha sido increible.
BIKE: from having no clue on how to use my clips, to ride 19 miles per hour average on my first tri and going on long rides with people I don´t know, it is amazing to see this and more improvements with time and dedication.
SPA. desde no saber como utilizar zapatos de gancho sin caerme de la bici a poder finalizar mi primer triatlon a 19 m/hr. average. o salir a rodar con un grupo desconocido de personas sin sentir temor de caerme. Es increible todo el avance que he hecho con solo 3 meses de entrenamiento.
WEIGHT: I loveeee to eat, and even though I take care of my diet specially during week days, I am not frustrated anymore about weight and food. It is clever to have a good nutrition during the process, but as long as you balance it, you´ll be great . Also having the commitment of going to train during weekends, I have to reduce my late Friday nights and cut alcohol, I do not miss those days. Once you have a goal in your life, everything falls into place.
SPA. Yo amo comer, y desde que estoy en el grupo es facil controlar las ansiedades. Para poder tener un buen desempeño es necesario incluir algunos cambios en la dieta y comer cosas que nos traigan beneficios a nivel de rendimiento a la hora de realizar alguna disciplina. También el hecho de comprometerme a entrenar los fines de semana, ha ayudado sin duda alguna a eliminar el alcohol de mi sistema. Una vez te comprometes con tus sueños, nada se interpone en el camino, porque al final, es lo que quieres hacer, lo que te mueve.
Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. Coaches- entrenadores
2. Group –grupo
3. Communication and commitment with both – comunicación y compromiso con ambos.
What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon?
I would say the finish line. Crossing it strong and confident, makes me want more and see how far I can go. Managing my fears and facing them with knowledge and commitment.
La linea de llegada siempre es buen motivo para finalizar un triatlon. Me hace querer más y poner a prueba mi cuerpo y mente para saber que tan lejos puedo llegar, con conocimiento y compromiso.
What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?
It is incredible how much you can learn by your own, but is even greater if you have a coach to guide your steps plus a team that know exactly what you feel, want, and support you through the process. It might sound “cliche” but if you want to go faster go alone, but if you want to go far go with a group.”
Es increible las cosas que puedes hacer solo cuando te lo propones. Pero si tienes la ayuda de un coach que te ayude y guie tus pasos y de un grupo que sabe por lo que estas pasando, lo que sientes, lo que quieres y te apoye en el camino cuando lo necesites, vas a llegar más lejos.
Gracias Coach!!!!!!
