Notable
Even though Taylor grew up in Wisconsin, she's never been to Madison and is looking forward to going! In 2002, Taylor tore her ACL on her right knee and had surgery. She recovered well and competed well last year taking 2nd place in the Boom Run. In October of 2003, Taylor tore her ACL in her left knee. Her surgery was in December and recovery has been much more difficult this time. She had an allergic reaction to medication she was given after the surgery and had an infection in the incision site.
Quotable
"Last year because of my injury to my ACL, I didn't feel as much pressure to do well. I hadn't been able to train as much and I think I just didn't have high expectations. I think it ended up helping me because I didn't get very nervous or anxious. I just went for it."
