A Los Angeles man who recently underwent gender reassignment surgery is among athletes featured in a TV special on the Tough Mudder obstacle race.
Taylor, 27, whose last name was not given, will be one of the three stories featured on the CW’s “Tough Mudder: Tougher Together” special, which airs Thursday March 15, at 8 p.m. EDT.
Taylor is participating in his fifth Tough Mudder, but the first since undergoing gender reassignment surgery that left him bedridden. He is doing the obstacle course with his dad.
