Did Mike Rossi (viral marathon dad) cheat his way into Boston?

No. There was no mention of actual sex. And, the two fictional people involved he was referring to from that episode were in the same grade at school. So, had he mentioned them having sex, which he didn't, two 16 year old's are allowed to f*ck each other. All day long if they like. Even on Sunday.

That in your mind that became statutory rape is your disturbing issue/fantasy. Get some help. Call a therapist ASAP, you sick f*ck.

He's right there was no mention of sex. Wet panties and throbbing things on underage girl's necks with chains are NOT actually sex!

This has nothing to do with Rossi and you are sickos.

Mid-life crisis for mike rossi, maybe patriotic gesture after the Boston marathon bombing, what ever the motivation he set the goal to run in the next Boston marathon he could qualify for.

He made attempts and came up short but, he told everyone that he was going to run Boston.

Having no running background what so ever, this 45 year old had no idea how hard it would be and equally clueless to the type of training it would take to BQ.

He backed himself into a corner and had no alternative (in his mind) so he cheated.

Yes, I used my real name.

That makes sense dude. Good analysis. In addition to the likelihood Mike Rossi ran a 3:11 legitimately being more improbable than winning the lottery based on the LetsRun article and the opinions of two of the most well-known endurance running exercise physiologists in the nation, it's pretty clear from reading his blog and the background on this guy that the incentive was big for him to cheat to get into Boston. I mean Mike Rossi put himself in a position with his social media selfie image where he probably absolutely felt he NEEDED to get into Boston at any cost or risk his whole selfie social media project being a failure and him having to stay home in Philly, etc.

Qualifying for Boston is not easy for someone without much a running background like Rossi as there are no quick fixes in this sport. Rossi and non-runners should realize that most who qualify for Boston with relative ease (myself included and many of whom post on this board) have a competitive HS and/or NCAA xc/track background with years of training under their belts.

Can you stop reposting this shit every page?

It's good that he keeps posting it (at the top of the page, if possible). If new people come to this thread, many of them are going to skip to the last couple of pages. I'd rather that they see the overwhelming evidence against Rossi, rather than simply grade school bickering over something that LoserMikeRossi jokingly said.

It isn't difficult to skip to the next post.

Just use this link instead: http://postimg.org/image/7iunv8vfx/

It's pretty annoying on my phone but people like you do this crap and don't care please keep doing it makes you look really cool thanks

You should realize that instead of repeatedly posting the entire article, you can just post the first line and the last line, and for the reader that's the same thing as reading the whole thing.

And readers will still learn more in reading those two lines than if they'd spent an entire year in school.

...Unfortunately, it is obvious the VIA RD doesn't understand statistics, so a DQ is not likely forthcoming. The best bet is probably to get enough people who do understand statistics to watch the video, and then get them to explain it to her.

Thanks concernedBQer! Are you on Facebook? Got some of us working behind the scenes, shoot me a message/friend request me or email me at

When you say working behind the scenes, is the RD gonna review the evidence again?

When can we expect some results realistically?

The decision NOT to disqualify Rossi is about as idiotic as the MLB umpire's decision in this video:

Back when it happened I can see why they would be upset, but by new rules that catcher is considered to be blocking access to the base. Catchers can no longer stand in the base path unless they have the ball, just like any other infielder. It's called obstruction.

Well, I did hear from Lehigh Valley Marathon.. Not directly about Mike Rossi, it felt more like a marketing deal, they provided me this info here:

With a degree from Penn State in Journalism and some other degree from University of Maryland, do you think she's taken a statistics course?

What sucks is the lack of transparency

Is this real or a joke? I don't get it.

Are they really going to review the evidence again? I thought I read that a while back.

The picture linked above, it is Lehigh Valley VIA Marathon's new "Truth in Advertising" campaign that I'm helping to facilitate. As for what is happening behind the scenes, I am not at liberty to divulge that yet.

The 3:11:45 Marathon Qualifying Time That Rossi Put Up At The 2014 Lehigh Valley Marathon Was Too Good To Be True

by LetsRun.com

May 29, 2015

[NOTHING CONCLUSIVE TO SEE HERE]

As shown here, all of the 20 closest finishers to Rossi (in terms of place, 10 ahead, 10 behind) were spotted at all three checkpoints and yet Mr. Rossi is absent from all three.

And there we have it. Everyone is up to speed, no?

So, does anyone think it would be possible to detect cheaters in any marathon if they used solar powered helicopters or some sh!t?
