From Trials To Triumph: Cindy Beuermann’s Journey to Becoming 2023’s Female Rockstar of The Year
Coach’s Notes:
Cindy is Full Circle Coaching’s Female Athlete of the Year 2023!
No one deserves it more.
I have never had an athlete trust the process more and have the results she has had to transform her life in so many ways, for the better.
From suffering with depression and weight gain, to nurturing her body with grace and giving it quality nutrition and supplements, to killing every training session and triathlon race, to live life to it’s fullest and be so grateful for every step.
Never comparing her journey to anyone else but herself and truly loving and supporting herself with every win has also been inspirational to me!
Cindy is living proof that the Full Circle Community is a miraculous place to lay your trust and faith to get the support and love you need to achieve big dreams and goals!

Why did you choose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?
Many years ago, more than ten years actually, I was looking to get into triathlon. Somebody recommended Full Circle Coaching, and since the first day I joined the team, I have felt that was the correct place to start my triathlon journey.
What is/ was your “A” race for this season?
My first Full Ironman: COZUMEL 2023
FCC has been with me since my first sprint race, which I was very afraid to do. Erinne pushed me to go for it, so, after my first 6 months training with the group, I decided to register for my first sprint in KW. That was 10 years ago! After that I just kept racing and looking for longer distances. After many sprints, Olympics and 70.3, the moment for the first full Ironman arrived.
What are your BIG goals?
For this year, the big goal was completing my first full IM. But not just that, I wanted to complete it within 13 hours.
Tell me about your successes so far!
I’ve been training with Erinne for more than ten years. I am so grateful to have her and the team in my life. Thanks to her, I have grown as a triathlete in all the ways. It is not only a training program; it includes support in all aspects of life- friendship, guidance, nutrition, physical and mental health, support, inspiration, motivation, and the hand you can count on when things are hard.
With the pandemic, I had a very hard time, and Erinne was always available for me, not only as a coach, but also as a friend, and helped me unconditionally to get out of that dark hole I got into during those pandemic years.
Thanks to the sport, to her and to the group, I was able to get my life back, and that’s something I will never forget and will always be thankful.
Doing my first full Ironman was the challenge I set for myself as a welcome back to my “new life.” Erinne has supported me since the beginning, helping me believe in myself and making me confident enough to go through the process.
It was very hard, but I also enjoyed it so much. It has been one of the most amazing journeys I’ve ever been on.
My success today is being back in life, healthy physically and mentally… being back in a positive way, motivated and thankful for being alive, enjoying every second of life, and being present in every moment.
Thanks Erinne and FCC!
What were some of your biggest improvements in performance for each of the following? Swim, Bike, Run, and Nutrition/Health.
Swim: My catch and glide; going longer in open water swims without anxiety. We completed the Alligator Lighthouse 8-mile open water swim and got 2nd place, and it was Erinne’s PR for a 2-person relay team.
Bike: Learning and understanding the “power” world finally made me stronger and faster. Learned how to pace myself successfully, and use watts not speed to guide my training.
Run: I learned how to train and fuel correctly to run for longer distances, complete my first marathon, and pace perfectly with negative splits.
Nutrition: Learned EVERYTHING about nutrition: Supplements; How to make my body strong and efficient 100%. Without the new nutrition approach, I wouldn’t have been able to reach my goals.
TOTAL GAME CHANGER!!!
Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
- Having Erinne as my coach and guide.
- Getting the motivation and support from the FCC group 24/7.
- Meeting amazing people in the community who are so inspirational and motivational. Having friends in my life, I know I can count on unconditionally.
What excites you the most about being involved in running/triathlon?
Triathlon is where you can challenge and motivate yourself in many ways. NO LIMITS.
Triathlon helps you to keep growing as a person every day, have the discipline to keep pushing, and it feeds your mind and soul.
Accomplishing big, scary goals makes you realize how amazing your body is, how far you can go, and how thankful you should be for life. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
