Celina Costa is an American citizen originally from Brazil. Celina had a challenging childhood and started working as a cleaner at the age of eleven.. To the 29 years, she was addicted to tobacco and alcohol and had a life with no prospects for the future.

Em 1998, Celina was confronted by a friend who told her that she couldn't run even ten kilometers. She accepted the challenge and, in the same week, signed up to run a full marathon 42 km, despite never having done any exercise.

A significant part of this story is that Celina managed to finish that marathon. She almost died that day, but committed to God during the race, saying: “Deus, if you help me finish this marathon, I’m going to stop smoking”. This was a life-changing experience for Celina as she finally crossed the finish line for the first time in her life., ushering in a new life of incredible and exciting adventures.

The Best of You is an autobiography about the story of Celina Costa. The writer emotionally addresses her career as a marathon runner who won more than forty trophies and more than two hundred medals.

The book is marked by solid experiences that move and inspire the reader who is looking for a reason to get up and fight to make their dreams come true..

Tragedy, romance, intrigue, challenges, humor and extraordinary triumphs are the footprints that mark this motivational biography. Celina Costa's determination is the highlight of a career that began with a challenge that was accepted and fulfilled with great pain, but that changed the story of the little girl from the interior of Contagem, MG, for the world's marathons. The book is an account of the athlete's learning experiences. Putting more effort into your life goals is an inspiration to live more substantially than ever before.
