Olympic monobob gold medalist Elana Meyers Taylor revealed Wednesday that she has been dealing with post-concussion symptoms for the past few months and will not slide in the coming World Cup season.
Meyers Taylor — whose career was nearly derailed a decade ago by concussion-related concerns — told The Associated Press that she is not planning to retire.
