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

So it's definitely not New Jersey's US International Freestyle Skier, Mike Rossi. or the one that's owns a pizza place in Trenton?.

Unbelievably, two men named Michael Rossi ran Boston that day, and both are from Pennsylvania. The other gentleman is 52 years old, and ran a much better time - 3:31.Hope no one gets confused and credits "Rossi the cheater" with the superior time of the other Mr. Rossi.

Yeah, I get it. What are the odds of two Mike Rossis on air within easy driving distance of each other. Bizarre.

He also has his own deejay company. I would recommend contacting the person who did an article on him on philly.com.

I will pay $1000 to a charity of his choice if he can run with 15 minutes of his Boston Qualifier. Brojos have my email.

Anyone else want to chip in and make this a public offer?

If he wants the spot light, he can have it will earning some money for a good cause!

All this guy had to do was run Boston and not say a word and he never would've been caught cheating. Makes me wonder how many Mike Rossi's cheat their way into Boston each year?

Is he a radio personality where we can call into his show and confront him on the air?

Let's start calling the other Mike Rossi "Tandy".

anyone get that?

For what it's worth, Mike has replied via Twitter and denies he cheated:

Is that why he has closed down his blog because he's innocent. Actions speak louder than words.

Keep following this twitter. He is on the run now - figuratively...

yeah - must be a common name out east

for someone who has watched their dad train hard and not qualified for Boston for the last two years, I think Mike is a real POS if he doesn't provide proof of his BQ.

I could very easily make a strong and convincing case proving that I ran any race that I have actually run.

The onus should be on Mike to prove this, not us to prove he didn't run the race.

God, his Twitter is shameless. Makes me wanna puke hard.

All three networks just went to live helicopter feed of Rossi in a white Bronco on the 405 driven by Al Cowlings with 3000 Letsrun trolls in pursuit.

At this point, this thread shows up #2 on p. 2 of organic results when you google Mike Rossi:

Keep at it, LRs, and you'll end up on p. 1. Another two or three pages of commentary should do it.

This is an obvious case of cheating.

I bet there are several TV stations in Philly that would love to break this story!

Walls are closing in Mike

They will likely need a stronger proof than this.
