Bode Miller will take at least one year off, buys barn, report says
Six-time Olympic medalist Bode Miller said he will take at least one year off from Alpine skiing, according to BloodHorse.com, which also reported Miller bought a barn to continue his venture into horse racing.
Miller, 37 and the most decorated U.S. Olympic skier of all time, previously said on June 15 that it was unlikely he would race the full 2015-16 World Cup season, which starts in October, and agreed it was possible he would ski a partial schedule.
Miller crashed in the World Championships super-G on Feb. 5 (video here), underwent surgery to repair a severed right hamstring tendon and missed the rest of the season.
