When he was called on to the proverbial carpet because his VIA Marathon pace time was astronomical better than any previous pace time, he explained that he those other races he didn't try. One direct quote, "Many of my races were run for fun or were performed while I had documented injuries."

If you are going to claim "DOCUMENTED" injuries, you need to provide those documents to support your specious claims. If you are going to claim you have photos of yourself on the VIA course, you need to back up your claims with those photos. Otherwise, its just lies.

So in the link above, he states in no uncertain terms that he is going to give it his all, as in the case in everything he does. So, no matter which is true, giving it his all or running for fun, one thing is for sure, he consistently lies.

More to come.

, Mike Rossi claims he will run the Via Mararthon, again. Obviously another lie. Technically, he can't run it "again" because as we all know, he never ran it the first time.

It's pretty obvious most of you are jealous of Mike and his accomplishments. Thousands of pages dedicated to smearing his name and you've still got nothing. Mike was hounded by several news agencies who were interested in his story. He didn't have to reach out. Compare that to Ken whose desperation for fame resulted in, well you all know. You should all take a hard look in the mirror. I doubt most of you can ever run a full marathon, let alone qualify for Boston like Mike. He trained hard and made it look easy. Unfortunately, he sustained an injury and couldn't run as fast in Boston, but somehow he still managed to finish. Not many people can top that. It's irrelevant what you trolls think. What matters is that Mike is living a great life, full of success and surrounded by stellar people. Posting endless lies under anonymous accounts is never going to change that.

Let's delve a little deeper here. Mikey has been in the entertainment business since the time when MC Hammer was king. The entertainment business is a boom and bust existence for those trying to make their way in it.

After his breakout role in that dance show, Mikey found his was to local radio. There was a time when that was steady work for him. He probably did ok whenever he had his own radio show. But, unfortunately for him, that didn't last.

In recent years, he's found himself doing less and less radio work and more and more wedding DJ gigs. This is known as the slow professional decline. Many people experience it in their 40's if they haven't built the right connections or proved to be too good to fire.

What was Mikey's plan to rebuild his career?...social media traction. He started a blog, tweeted a lot, built a Facebook presence and went to as many public events as possible to get his name out there.

He decided that running the Boston Marathon was going to be his hook back in the game. Cheating to get in the Boston Marathon was just something that had to be done. He then hit gold with that letter to the Principal about his trip to Beantown. He was back and on top of the social media world.

However, as the saying goes..."where ever you go, there you are". And the real Mikey still came out.

Now, his Twitter and Facebook accounts are locked down. He is known around Philly as loser and social media whore with only pornbots following him online. He can't even enter his local 10 mile race under his own name.

Mikey sure does win. Having 2 underwater investment properties just adds to his monumental success.

I actually laughed out loud. Is this really the story you tell people? People you care about? That's sad. You need better lies. All the news articles about your cheating, at Runners world, Outside Magazine, Boston Globe, various Canadian and international papers, etc., were written by people who are just jealous of you? Really? The article by Rojo - he's also jealous of you and you are saying he has never run a marathon and he does not have the ability to qualify for Boston? That's your story? All of this talk about you cheating is just because people are jealous of Mike Rossi? That's some a seriously messed up disillusional narcissistic fantasy you have going. How many people run Boston every year? Over 30,000. And yet, out of all of those people, it's only you that people are jealous of? That's the story you tell your family? Wow.

You do realize that you are a wedding DJ who cheated to qualify for Boston and cheated at a Turkey Trot. I don't know how you can twist that failure of a life into a success story. Oh wait, you own a photo booth - I guess people are jealous. Your own photo booth. You're right, I would doubt any other person in the world would even think to brag about that. You may be the only person to run Boston who owns a photo booth. That's why people are jealous.
