The story behind FitMind Running
As I read Eliud Kipchoge’s quote, “I don’t know where the limits are, but I would like to go there”, I could resonate with what I felt when I first ran a marathon, the 2010 Disney Marathon. Was I capable of finishing it?
Back then, I knew nothing about running, other than a marathon distance is 26.2 miles; my longest training run was an eight-miler, and there was a medal at the finish line.
Fast-forward, 6hrs 46min 39seconds later— chip time—I got the medal. I was not physically fit or ready, according to any running coach’s philosophy, but I had a fit mind – (please get proper training). I discovered parts of my mind that I didn’t know existed. My mental resilience and strength were enough to maintain a positive mindset while building a transformative rapport of mind and body connection.
I became curious about my mind’s power and dreamt beyond the sky’s limit—I dreamt of a unicorn. I knew the three options to get into Boston and the work ahead. I kept running,
learning, and showing up. The physical work is hard, but the mental work intrigued me the most—the resilience, strength, and belief— required me to step up to the next level repeatedly, especially when faced with setbacks. I started applying meditation and hypnosis as mental ammunition.
Reciting positive affirmations to the conscious mind is a half job. My PR at the 2019 Baystate Marathon was 4:09:01 – a long shot from a 3:40:00 BQ, counting the spare time. My
mindset was celebratory, and I kept showing and aligning my actions with my desired outcome.
Two years later, my husband connected with an extraordinary person who offered me sponsorship to run the 2022 Boston Marathon for the Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF) as a charity runner to help cancer patients in the New England area. The collaboration resulted in $15,826.00, my dream came true, and a PR of 4:08:02. My drive has stayed the same. I keep showing up for a BQ soon.
The power of the subconscious mind is more efficient and resourceful than working mainly with the conscious mind. Hypnosis is a state of extreme relaxation and heightened
suggestibility. It gives you the ability to stop self-sabotaging and act in your own best interest. It can also cultivate positive traits like confidence and self-esteem to improve performance.
Mental strength, discipline, and resilience and fundamental qualities for athletic performance. As a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, I lead the athlete into a hypnotic state, also known as a trance state. Once the athlete is in a hypnotic state, hypnotherapy techniques like suggestion, visualization, modeling, and anchoring can be used to help reprogram limiting beliefs and mental blocks in the subconscious, creating positive changes in everyday life.
My passion is coaching and guiding other runners in discovering their inner potential, designing a congruent training plan that meets life’s challenges and current fitness, and that they have fun running —no matter their experience level, age, or ability.

I’m Celia. I’m a running coach, a runner, a hypnotherapist, a wife, a nature lover, and a resilient person.
Growing up, I wasn’t particularly interested in sports. Instead, I played games like hopscotch and hide-and-seek, rode my bike, and studied hard. As a teenager, I worked hard while attending school and eventually moved to the USA before my twenties. While focused on my studies and career, sports took a backseat.
