Cloths look the same to me, what about his shoes.
Slightly different shoes, and I think that guy's too skinny.
There is a huge picture dump here as well. I've gone through about 300 so far and that's the closest that I've seen of him.
Can someone tell Rossi to stop wearing his Boston Marathon clothes everytime he runs

I agree, his build is very different and Mike always wears the same greyish shoes with a bit of green or something in them
Mike, will you please hurry up and finish fabricating that GPS file? We all know that's what you're doing right now, so will you please hustle up and get it done?
Ha we know he has been trying

Interesting to say the least. For someone like him who likes to brag about his running accomplishments, it's odd that he didn't mention anything regarding his "run of his lifetime".
Looking through the cached version of his blog I don't see the Lehigh BQ post that I am 100% certain I saw before he blocked the public from the site. Back when reading it I thought it was beyond odd that he didn't provide any details on the run of his life. Next I checked his FB which was public at that time, no details on the Lehigh miracle beyond mentioning that he BQed. [quote]

This is 16 hours old. Trust me it's back a couple dozen pages already haha
Rossi picture crossing the finish line his sneakers look grey & yellow
I haven't done anything at work for 2 days, and that's just reading the thread and other articles/comments. I haven't even done any photo searching. Thank you to all the obsessive weirdos with too much time on your hands for doing all the leg work on this. I have enjoyed this more than the Kip Case. I hope their is an exciting conclusion with some sort of tearful interview.
This guy is just fascinating. It got me thinking, what did narcissists like this guy do to get their external validation before social media and blogs? Did they just carry around their training log and a book of pictures to show everyone they meet? Or did the internet create/amplify the narcissism?
2nd hand info from local runners is that he has/had his medal hanging from his rearview mirror in car- can't personally confirm

What kind of marathons are you people running ?
Maybe he got some ideas here:

Link to the blog on his business website
What I find truly disdainful is him posting a picture of a memorial to the four bombing victims under his letter to the principal on his company's website. As if he's done anything positive in their memory, and using that to draw in more business... Errrrrr.
Two other things from the blog:
- When did running the Boston Marathon suddenly become a childhood dream?
- What it must be like to live with this tool. The letter to the principal is only signed by him... The kids have two parents. And in the picture of his family, they're all wearing shirts that say "Mike." Probably sums up the family dynamics in that house.
Alright, trying to catch up but am losing ground. Anything of real significance between page 23 and here?
It's obvious he cheated..I don't think anyone with a brain can question that. Maybe not enough evidence to convict him in a court of law--but he obviously cheated.
If he were innocent, the same guy that rushed to the media to grandstand about the unexcused absences (which really isn't a big deal), would be defending himself with every possible piece of evidence on these cheating allegations--he admitted he had GPS data. Hell if I legitimately ran that kind of PR--I'd have posted race reports--GPS logs, etc..etc..especially if I was the egomaniac that he appears to be.

Apparently when he started running at age 45.

I believe at this point the consensus is that Mike will eventually release (doctored) GPS data. That's what I'm waiting to tear into. Every single damn data point.
