Tucson’s Tour de Cure came and went in late February and my excuse for not doing it was that I hadn’t ridden since the 70.3 last October as all my training had been concentrated on a half marathon in late January. While training for the 70.3 last year, I had opportunities both in Tucson and San Antonio to ride with Edy. When Edy fell and fractured her pelvis and wouldn’t be able to ride in the San Antonio Tour de Cure, I wanted to be there for her and ride for her. Riding away at the start and seeing Edy standing there with her sparkly cane was difficult and that’s all I’m going to say, but knowing she would be at the end of 55 miles gave me motivation to have a great ride. I rode with the team formed by the practice where Edy is the CDE--Diabetes and Metabolism Specialists of San Antonio. Also riding for the team were Dr. Rodriguez; Jeff, Edy’s son; Joe (a nurse); Baldwin (also a nurse); and Akia, Baldwin’s young son.
