We Support Strong Women
Every year we choose a local non-profit to support.
Meet this year’s Guest Speakers
Don’t miss them on Friday evening at 4:30 pm for a panel discussion, Q&A and social. Don’t forget to bring your favorite pre-run potluck dish!
Rachel Entrekin
Rachel is a physical therapist from Alabama who’s quietly (and then very loudly) taken the ultrarunning world by storm. She’s the current women’s course record holder at the Cocodona 250 and has racked up eight 100-mile wins in just two years—yet still calls herself a “blonde idiot” on her blog.
Rachel brings heart, humor, and humility to every mile (and the occasional quick piano performance).
Sarah Allaben
Sarah lives and runs in Trout Lake, WA, where she works with Mt. Adams Resource Stewards as a Fire Adapted Communities Coordinator. She ran her first ultra at Wild Woman and has since gone on to win races like the Gorge Waterfalls 50k—all while staying refreshingly grounded.
Whether managing prescribed burns or pushing through long climbs, Sarah leads with quiet strength and deep connection to the land she calls home.
Our Yoga Instructors Are Wild Women Too
Susie Rivard
Formally an elite road marathoner, Susie hung up her road shoes in 2020 and decided to focus her time on trail running and adventuring instead. Her secondary love of yoga has not only provided her a counterbalance to her outdoor pursuits, but it has also evolved into a foundation for her entire life. Susie is a RYT-200 certified teacher, and she lives in White Salmon, where she enjoys frolicking on the incredible local trails and teaching at Yoga Samadhi.
Susie teaches yoga at 11:00 am on Saturday June 21st.
Johanna Siskar
Born in Peru and based in the Pacific Northwest, Johanna Siskar is a long-time yoga teacher, breathwork and meditation guide, and global retreat leader. With more than 25 years of experience, her teaching blends alignment-focused yoga with practices that reconnect students to joy, resilience, and inner strength. Johanna is passionate about helping others rediscover their brilliance through movement, mindfulness, and self-compassion. Her approach is rooted in kindness, shaped by decades of training with respected teachers and healers around the world. After the Wild Woman races, Johanna will lead a restorative, all-levels yoga class to help you stretch out, reflect, and soak in the power of what you've just accomplished.
See more of Johanna’s offerings at Semana Legacy Adventures.
Johanna teaches yoga at 2:00 pm on Saturday June 21st.
