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

He didn't register for BSR because he doesn't want to face Cecily, Adam Joseph, Victor Fiorillo or the rest of the Philly media.

Besides proving he cheated Via, and stole a spot in Boston this thread also exposed his narcissistic and threatening personality disorders. His co-workers love that this thread exists. Everyday he gets pummeled here.

Cecily would CRUSH the Cheater Mike Rossi. CRUSH HIM. Take a look at his hero vid, he "runs" like a knock-kneed tween girl.

Wait a minute...

You cannot steal a spot in Boston by meeting the qualifying time. There is no predetermined number of applicable slots per age group.

Again you are correct in twisting words around.you can't steal a spot by meeting the qualifying time. You steal a spot by crossing the start,being driven to the finish and "obtaining a finish time" by crossing the finish line.

Cecily Tynan has already crushed and castrated him with her words. She minced no words when she wrote what she thought of Mike Rossi's cheating, lies, lame excuses, personal attacks, etc. She effectively said, bend over little boy, I am driving.

Prove that you can run any faster.

Not about me, all about The Cheater Mike Rossi proving he can run a 3:11:45 for $200,000. If the brojos want to set a time for me to run for a beverage, well, the Dudester is up for a challenge.

His co-workers? Talk about a collection of losers.

Never has been never will be. No need to take you seriously.

This says more about you than anybody else.

I have had my fun here, posting a couple of times, some pages back… (Man, this thread moves fast!)

It is pretty clear, Mike, that you are posting about yourself in the third person using a plurality of usernames. Also, a bunch of people seem to be having great fun trolling you. There may be some users using multiple user names, but that does not really change what the heart of this is.

Mike, I feel compelled to make one honest attempt at giving you what I feel is good advice, before I stop posting in this thread:

I think you should man up to the truth. Admit the times you cheated, ask the affected races to remove your results, and start over. Sure, you will get further hammered here by some, but in the long run, you will earn back some credibility and may even be able to truly enjoy running again. More importantly, you have children and, whether you want to believe it or not, some day, they will Google you and they will see the story. How they react is not known, but for sure it will be distressing for them at some level. At least by giving up the charade now and owning up to it, they will be able to see a good outcome.

I had posted previously about how screwed things were that a Google of just “Mike Rossi” delivered an avalanche of marathon cheating references. I just visited a physiotherapist who specializes in treating runners. He is a good runner in his own right (~1:15 half) and is well-connected in the Toronto running scene. We were talking about clubs etc. and I asked him what running-related internet sites he frequented. He listed a few and said “…as for forums, Let’s Run is where the action is, and it can be crazy.” (or something to that effect). I commented that he must know who Mike Rossi is and he just laughed and said: “Yeah, the guy who cheated to get into Boston!” That incident has really brought it home to me how crazy this is.

It probably is just a handful of people posting in this thread, but the story of these affairs is very widely known and your reputation as a runner, and as a person, has been badly damaged. Every time I (and anyone else comes to this site), we see this mega-thread, and whether we look in it that time or not, we are certainly reminded on the whole affair.

Whatever you do is up to you. As mentioned above, I won’t be posting any further in this thread, so I am not looking for any response from you, rather, this is a message meant for your personal reflection. I do mean it with sincerity and I wish you the best.

No enthusiasm in your trolling. Maybe wander over into the "Down Goes the Dow" thread for some rejuvenation.

Ignoring you now.

Haha.

Sound advice from 500 - when MusicmanPA first wrote about you many pages ago I asked him whether there was anyone you would listen to talking sense as 500 just did, he replied that someone tried and the response was that your "head looked as if it was going to explode".

At some point you are going to wish you had listened, right now its just a determination that nobody is going to beat you, in this state of mind you can't see that nobody is a greater enemy to you than yourself.

The way Mike viciously attacked people on this board, their families and their livelihoods. All for having a civil but thorough investigation into whether he cheated or not. That is why I care.
