Robert Young fakes run across America

The most effective way of actually dodging sun light is in the comfort of your mom's air conditioned basement. Which is exactly what the majority of the depressed typical millennial LRCers do here.

Ahem, see new forum rules below. Since it's a new rule we will let you off with a warning.

The use of "millennials" is still in dispute, but to be safe I would refrain from it's usage as well.

What's your feeling about "For the kids" ?

That one is only like a week old. It's kinda funny if used correctly, so I will allow you to continue to use it. But "mom's basement troll" has been around for years, all over the internet. It's old, tired, and henceforth banned.

"mom's basement" boy, you burned them! How'd you think of that one?

Double ouch- he sure did! Public exposure as a total fraud vs. calling out someone for being in their moms basement - huge burn. I bet those trolls wish they were out garnering international attention faking runs across america now. Moms basement! So good. They won't recover from that anytime soon.

Indeed, such a burn!

Hope he rests up, gets strong and smashes it to NY. Then releases data and rubs your noses in it when you can all see a genuine effort.

And I hope to come home after work to find a toilet made of solid gold in my bathroom. But that's just not in the cards now, is it?

Letsrunners had expressed worries that RY would doctor the data if given enough time. I don't think it's possible. He made the mistake of posting all those facebook pics of his tomtom data. But he revealed too much. He can't edit the data wholesale or it won't match those pics, not the distances, times, or paces.

Whoever created the graphics did a great job overlaying the blownup thumbnails of the routes from tomtom onto the google maps under scrutiny. He can't even edit the routes too much or it will no longer match.

Dude claims he quit his job "managing a million+ pound company" to run on his website. Didn't he just have some desk job at a car dealership or shop or something?

Found an article to quote:

Managing a million dollar company and "a manager at a motor parts company" seem like pretty different things...

I have read much of the thread and may have missed it but has anyone reported/seen this yet?

Please tell me he was once a wedding DJ but grew up and got a real job.

Scraping plates in the kitchen at Applebees isn't a real job, Kenny.

Why the frank are you still here? This is a running site.

Nobody cares about Mike Rossi or you. Go back to defrauding people.

They truly are retarded, aren't they? What's the politically correct way of saying "retarded" these days? Because that's what I mean--not a slander, but a psychological observation.

This is true. Nobody does care about Mike Rossi. Nobody.

Some people care about his cheating though.

They found the time to delete the posts from his page saying it's over, but no time for an update apparently. Also a new song posted by his supporters.

What???????

I would have thought "Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car" would be a better song choice.

Today Rob intends to organize marathons, probably using his fame. E.g. the "River Warthog Marathon".

He has already decided on the route of his race:

This time, he isn't doing it for the children, but for his own gain:

https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/09732960/officers

His business is registered at a shady address by the way.

Rob also had a business in car parts:

Keep following the money!

So is he still running? The website doesn't show any tracking information since 17-June and no Facebook updates since the 16th.
