SAN ANTONIO – For Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD educator Manny Olivo, his dream of running in the Boston Marathon is 30-plus years in the making. This year, he'll finally be able to approach that finish line. Olivo, a special education job coach for SCUCISD and lifelong runner, was one of two teachers in the nation to be selected in the Team TCS Teachers initiative to run the Boston Marathon — the most prestigious race in the world. He joined the program, which provides leadership and educational resources for teachers, in 2019 when he applied to run for them in the New York City Marathon.
