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

Thanks for the gem. So many pictures of his day-to-day life, even random photos of a table and people looking other directions, yet none from the greatest athletic achievement of his life. Gotta love the usual sh*t-eating grin and Boston hat.

He's blocked many of his BFFs so we can't see these. Can you post screenshots somewhere?

It's posts like this that almost convince me that LMR is actually a pretty brilliant troll. I mean, he couldn't possibly be calling Mike a bully and a psycho with a straight face, right?

And everyone needs to keep these things in mind as this thread continues and we work at getting the DQ. If you've hidden behind a screen name you wouldn't understand. Some of us have stood up to this bully and taken it on the chin. Our lives have been fair game to this psycho, and as far as we are concerned so is his.

Maybe if you'd have stood up to him as well he wouldn't just think there are nine people doing all the posting and he'd realize he has many more people against him and realized this is a fight he can't win. Stay anonymous if you want. Cower to Mike if you want. But don't tell the rest of us how to fight our battles.

Hilarious. Looks as if some people would really cheat for a 3+ marathon!

It's a public post, so all you have to do is log out of FB to see it. Or you could use your browser's incognito or private browsing mode. Same goes for people who are blocked on twitter.

Hey Ken standing up to people does not equate to stalking their family members.

Non runner. Nazi sympathizer. Confederate advocate. Self absorbed attention hog who talks about himself more than rossi. Petty man child who is locked in an eternal fight with a loser cause "he started it" and called your kid a gimp.... sounds like a battle worthy of social suicide if I've ever heard one. STALKER.

That is Kenneth stillman.

No more talking about Twitter or Facebook unless it is an admission for you.... you lost that right after posting about the travel routes and workplace of his wife. Yes you did.

Oh yeah, HI MIKE!

You can create a 2nd Facebook/Twitter account in less than a minute. Mike seems to block a lot of people.

Mike - why are you being so paranoid on social media? Afraid your close circle of brain dead friends will find out? Funny how you didn't rush to alleviate the fallout you caused when you posted that ridiculous letter.

Great Twitter action with @drquirkey. Acting like he's never heard of the LRC challenge or that his fraudulent BQ never happened.

Aug 2

@drquirkey: so are you accepting the letsrun challenge ?

Mike: who?

@drquirkey: you might not think they're anyone but the two bros who run out he site are 28 min 10k guys one pace Radcliffes WR so..,

Mike: no answer

@drquirkey: congrats on the 5k pb what race was it in?

Mike: no answer

Don't want to wear white pants. If Mike Rossi makes one passing of gas, those things are brown

Ha - are they worse than the sleeveless tight shirt with the white cowboy hat?

You are making fun his pants. Did somebody say that I WASN'T HELPING HERE?

If you are posting anonymously then you are a troll as far as I am concerned. I'm doing something towards getting a DQ. I have a media connection that will be writing a a story about why the RD will not look at new evidence.

What are any of you doing besides calling Mike names?

Ken, until your media connections story comes out, you know, the one you've been on about for weeks (months?), then this thread is virtually lifeless. You can keep prodding it but not much is going to happen, you'll need to take your vendetta elsewhere if want to get at Rossi.

Also, interest has turned to a bigger international cheating scandal, but that won't interest you as it's to do with running.

Ken you have been posting here for all of two months and don't understand that letsrun is one of the few forums allowing anonymity to encourage free flow of information. If you'd read the mission statement between rants you'd know that just because you post anonymously doesn't mean you are a troll.

Many of us are not so foolish as to you. We do not want to give our true identifies for fear of weirdos doing things like cyberstalking (or real stalking). Guys like you.

So don't demand people to start posting their names. You don't mind exposing yourself to the online world, on fact you enjoy it.

If you'd been posting here for more than two months and on any other threads you might not this. Try reading the mission statement... it might shock you to find out it is about running! Not cheetos and oreo baths with curvy straws!

Our History

LetsRun.com was founded in the spring of 2000 by twin brothers Weldon  (“Wejo”) and Robert Johnson (“Rojo”). Weldon had qualified for the 2000 Olympic Marathon Trials and decided to quit his job as an economic consultant to move to the mountains of Flagstaff, Arizona to pursue his long shot dream of the Olympics. Robert decided to move to Flagstaff to help Weldon with the arduous training weeks of up to 140 miles.

Truth be told, the Brothers Johnson (aka “Brojos”) had a lot of free time on their hands as fortunately most human beings don’t run more than 3 hours a day. This little thing called the internet was fairly new and there was one problem, there wasn’t a website for people who lived and breathed running.

So LetsRun.com was born.

Gotta side with Ken here. I'm one who called him out for not helping and for focusing on his irrelevant (to running) personal catfight with Rossi, but he's right that if you're ridiculing him for his pants you've really lost focus.
