I see no better way to celebrate the results of hard work (15 miles/week) than this posting. Bravo, Mike. Continue living your life!

Kenny your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Kenny whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, Kenny and Greg mike ran 3:11 it is as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Aerage hoes who picked up running and surprised themselves. It would be as dreary as if there were no Emil Zatopek. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence.
We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which athletic endeavor fills the world would be extinguished.
Not believe. You might as well not believe in breaking records. Could the 4 minute mike be broken ? No. But Bannister believed and he did what they said could. It be done. Nobody sees Possible in the impossible. but that is no sign that there is no Possible The most real things in the world are those that neither defeatists nor resigned men can see. Go to the moon? Break 4 minutes? Can't be done. Just because you can't doesn't mean someone else can't. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.
You tear apart mikes race and compare it to your own average rests, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. It is called hope and guts and determination.
No Pre?! He lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Kenny and Greg nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make people strive to break their barriers.
Can't run 3:11? 1 in a million chance?
Mike did it. Good for him. All your crying and whining on this board can't change that he did it. Whether you believe or not doesn't change it.
Use him as an excuse for why you can't meet your own dreams and goals or let him inspire you to go out and do what others won't because they think it is too hard. It's up to you
Word out
I'm not sure I believe he did 3:11 but I do agree with your point as I take it that if there is a chance he did it we can't rule it out and we can either knock him down or work on ourselves

Can I keep hope alive and still be skeptical of a 3:11?

There is no chance. I think this blogger summed it up perfectly,
http://therunnereclectic.com/2015/05/06/race-times-physiology-and-statistics/when he said that "...his 10k, 10M, and half marathon times are all at a slower pace than his alleged marathon PR. This isn’t just unlikely, it is only possible in an alternate universe."
In addition, while Rossi tries to discredit the source of the evidence and the evidence against himself, the only thing he has done is claim that he has pictures given to him by the Committee, claims to have training logs and GPS data to support his ability to run the race, yet he won't provide any his evidence to refute the overwhelming and incontrovertible evidence amassed against him!! Any sane person would, as at this point they have nothing to lose, except face.
Why won't he provide any evidence he so steadfastly claims he has, I ask rhetorically? Any reasonable person and even any elementary school child can tell you why not because this behavior is no different than that exhibited by petulant, bully elementary school children.

Hi Mike!You should run - uh, or not - to Vegas and place your tiny man fortune on the big wheel. Your chances are well over a million times better hitting the jackpot with your cheating number. Seriously.Morons abound, trolls please step up your game.You can never even be considered a runner now, even if Ken only manages 10 steps he is a better runner than you could ever hope to be.Because you are a liar and a cheat.MIKE WINS THE JACKPOT! CHEATER OF THE xYxExAxRx xDxExCxAxDxEx CENTURY!

Thing about Emil and Bannister, when they did things that people had previously thought impossible there was photographic and video evidence, there were eye witnesses and their documented training and race history backed it up.
Mike is nothing but a publicly exposed FRAUD. Must be painful for such an egomaniac as Mike that everyone knows he is a FRAUD. He knows he can't BQ. He know that we all know he can't BQ. And he can't even have the smug comfort that if he can't physically BQ that he is crafty enough to cheat his way to a BQ without anyone knowing. MIKE YOU CHEATED AND YOU AREN'T EVEN SMART ENOUGH TO GET AWAY WITH IT.
Mike loses.
Even if the cheating doesn't hit the level of national exposure that the letter did. It most definitely went viral at the local level.
Everyone that Mike is acquainted with knows he cheated. They all read the articles.
Most everyone Mike is acquainted with saw the twitter exchange with Cecily where he comes off looking very bad.
Mike getting into it with Cecily was his biggest mistake in this aftermath. She has tons of local followers and is beloved in Philly. His true colors came out in front of the non runners.
The DQ or non-DQ is mostly irrelevant now. It would be great only as so far as it brings awareness that the self-righteous viral letter dad to even more people. But I am happy with the results even if it all stopped now.

Viral at the local level. Is that like an infected toenail or something?
In general I agree, Doubler. MR is just digging a deeper pit every time he opens his twitter-hole.

of course I am idiot wrote:You must be new here.
Take a seat and shut the fvck up fagg0t.
So angry, lol. And you clearly aren't from around here. I'm not new.
My posts call Mike Rossi a piece of shit and tell him to fvck himself but you think I am Mike?
How stupid are you?

In case anyone still thinks the "investigation" was really interested in the truth, Mike's tweet gave it away.
Mike Rossi @mikerossi22 17h17 hours ago
@CecilyTynan You're lucky. Many have said publicly they have been missed. VIA told me one of the previous winners was missed at the finish
Translation: LVM told Mike how to defend himself against the accusations.
Is just freaking awesome! I checked out her Facebook and the comments to her MR post are like 99.5%, yes he cheated, you're awesome!
She doesn't back down from his twitter-bulling either.
She'll probably get a C&D letter next.. Lol.

You dropped this
"Finally, the last thing I’ll say to the people who don’t believe in Rossi, the cynics and the sceptics: I'm sorry for you. I’m sorry that you can’t dream big. I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles. But this is one hell of a race. This is a great sporting event and you should stand around and believe it. You should believe in these athletes, and you should believe in these people."
And Bannister ran his sub-4 on 20 mi/wk or less.Mike is better than that, running a 3:11 on even less mileage.Sir Mike "Rosie" Rossi, it is, The Knighted CheatMike Wins!
