Dr. Smiley is from Bellingham, WA, and graduated with her DPT from the University of Washington. In her undergraduate years, she played collegiate soccer at Biola University. After graduating, she started running in order to stay active and fuel her competitive side after finishing up her soccer career. In 2019, she qualified for the Boston Marathon. Since then, she has competed in three additional marathons (including Boston and Chicago) as well as four additional half marathons. She enjoys working in the running community as a physical therapist and now as an RRCA certified run coach. She made the move from Seattle to Nashville this summer and is thrilled to be the newest member of the Be Ready Team!
