Chapter 380 Continuing the Winning Streak 4 (1/2)

If Jake told Kate he might be joining the NBA this year and not doing it would be much worse than hiding something from her, but not to feel too bad Jake decided to tell Kate about the movie he was shooting this year.

When Jake said about the movie he was filming this year with Keanu Reeves she was surprised because she realized that this was another really great movie just like what she had seen Jake do, and this time Jake said he would have a real character in the movie with a lot of appearance time.

Kate didn't expect Jake to really continue his acting career, let alone when he was so busy with basketball and marathons, but she naturally understood that Jake really wanted this and that seemed like a very good job opportunity.

Kate didn't want to be an actress and she didn't think she had any talent for that, but she really respected the actors because she knew some actors and party actresses she attended and she knew how difficult their lives were.

Of course, Kate didn't understand why Jake was really happy with this movie because she didn't know the future as he knew this movie would be a huge success, after participating in this movie Jake could already be considered a successful actor even if he did only a supporting character in the movie.

After that, the two talked for a few hours about life and what they liked, only when Kate's manager called that they realized they had been together for a few hours and Kate had to leave.

But she promised that she would call Jake soon so they could talk more often. After spending an afternoon with Kate, Jake felt that he was fine and more relaxed than if he had rested for many days.

He really enjoyed spending time talking to Kate, it was in a way just like what he felt only when he was with his mother, Jake felt that he could spend several hours talking to Kate every day that they would never be without a subject.

In the coming days, the Tar Heels team had no training and Jake was just training for the races with Coach Davis and Zack, Jake even stopped training for the 10,000-meter races because in less than a month he would have a marathon to run.

It was the Tokyo Marathon that took place in February and it was also the last of the major marathons Jake had to win, he had already won the other 5 and thus gained 5 points in resistance and 5 points in reward agility.

Once he won this marathon more he would gain one more point in agility and one point in resistance, which was good for Jake who would get even better after that, but it was also a problem because after this marathon Jake didn't know when he could win another point in agility and resistance.

Of course, as far as Jake knew he no longer needed any agility and endurance statistics to be able to win marathons for many years, nor for the other athletics, Jake thought he just needed training now.

But Jake had some goals like running a marathon in less than 2 hours and also breaking world records in other racing modalities, to do that he needed more points in statistics.

Now Jake just had to focus on winning the marathon in Tokyo and then he would think about how he would earn more stats points, after a few days the day of the upcoming Tar Heels game came.

The Tar Heels players were much more rested and relaxed after a few days without training and even Jake was more relaxed even though he did his running training.

This game would be at home what made things even easier for the Tar Heels team that would play with the fans, the opponent of this game was the Appalachian State team, it was a team that would have a good season, but was in a conference where the teams were weaker than other university teams.

So it was expected to be an easier game for the Tar Heels team after such a difficult game a few days ago, yet Coach Guthridge told the players not to be careless and focus on the game.

In the first minutes of the game, Jake began the attack of the team Tar Heels calmly and did not increase much the pace in the attack, the players got tired a lot in the last games and came from some days without training.
