Mat Hotho sits down with Lauren Taylor, gold medalist in the Neuromuscular Moderate division at the 2025 CrossFit Adaptive Games.
Lauren walks through the long road — a broken collarbone in high school that snowballed into neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome, three years of insurance battles before surgery, and a near-fatal Valentine's Day procedure where she coded on the table after losing 2.5 liters of blood. She came back to win an NCAA Division II field hockey national championship, picked up Spartan racing, then a 2021 car accident left her with a TBI.
Watching Amy Bream compete at the CrossFit Games sparked the next chapter. Two days before the 2022 Open, she signed up.
The conversation gets into the Kitchen Sink workouts, her sixth year with coach Aimee Lyons, and what it means to be seen by a community that shows up to throw down with you.
