Athletes qualify for WheelWOD CrossFit Games
In 2020, Leicester Tigers forward Taylor Gough was left paralysed from the chest down after a life changing car accident.
It was an incredibly difficult time - but since the accident, Taylor has pushed himself and his athleticism further, including representing Great Britain鈥檚 Para-Canoe team, as well as the Tigers Wheelchair Rugby team.
Now, he takes on a new challenge, and this time alongside his fiancee, Paralympian Kylie Grimes MBE. The pair have qualified for the Adapted Crossfit Games in Las Vegas, an immense test of functional strength, which take place in September.
Taylor and Kylie spoke to 麻豆社 Leicester's Jo Russell.
