Fortunately for Jake, the Olympics would begin just before the NBA season began, so Jake didn't have to worry about losing any official games and could easily compete in athletics competitions.

Jake had no hope of being chosen for this Olympic basketball team in 2000, after all, he knew that a young player had little chance of being chosen on a team that had Jason Kidd and Gary Payton he would not be chosen to play.

After all, besides the two being excellent players who played for many years in the NBA, they had experienced in the Olympic basketball team and that is why Jake didn't think it was fair that he should be chosen.

But he would try to be chosen in 2004 and was confident that he would be chosen if he won the NBA title by the Los Angeles Lakers team, until then if Jake managed to win 3 gold medals at the 2000 Olympics he would be an athletics legend.

In the early days in Miami Jake told his mother everything that had happened in the last few months and said his expectations for the film he had participated in, he also told her about Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne with whom he had befriended during filming.

Eva also told Jake several things about the restaurant, in fact, Eva's life in Miami was a routine of going to the restaurant every day and with a lot of work, luckily she and everyone who worked with her loved it and so they could continue happily.

Eva said that they changed the menu again that year just as she had already told Jake that she would, and as always the new menu was approved by customers, as always Jake was happy if Eva was happy.

After that Jake said he had bought a house in Los Angeles where he would play in the NBA and also that he had bought a car, Eva just said she wanted to see his house and his car in the future and Jake promised that he would take her to Los Angeles to see his house.

Eva believed in Jake and knew that he knew how to take good care of the money he had, even though she didn't know when money Jake had she knew it was tens of millions of dollars and she had never seen Jake spend it irresponsibly.

After Jake joined the NBA Eva knew that Jake would never again have money problems with the investments he had, she was proud to know that Jake was finally having a better life after working so hard.

Jake just stayed home with his mom resting a little at home where he could be at peace, but after two days Jake knew it was no longer time to rest when Coach Davis arrived in Miami.

Jake had already told Coach Davis that he would live in Los Angeles and Coach Davis intended to buy a house to live with his family there, after all, he had been living with his family for the past few years in a hotel that was close to Jake's university.

Jake had offered to buy him a house near North Carolina University and now he had also offered to buy him a house in Los Angeles or the coach's family could live in one of the servants' houses that Jake had in his mansion.

Even though it was called a house for employees it was much bigger than an ordinary house and had 3 bedrooms and was very good for Coach Davis' family to live in, after all, Jake could move and buy another house in another city when he changed teams and the Davis coach could not buy a home in several different cities.

But Coach Davis said it wouldn't be a problem because he had talked to his wife and he would buy a house in Los Angeles and then live in hotels elsewhere where Jake played in the NBA, the important thing was that his family had a home to stay in.

So Jake suggested that he buy a house in Miami because Jake himself would return to live in Miami in the future, but Coach Davis denied it because he knew that Jake would at least stay another 4 years in Los Angeles and after that, his daughter Lara who already had 10 years would be 14 years old and they would have no problem living in hotels.

Not to mention that with the salary Jake paid he could save to buy another house in another 4 years if he wanted to, Jake felt bad for Frank's family, but as Coach Davis had decided that there was nothing Jake could do about it.

Coach Davis had also already talked to the organizers of the marathon in Chicago and the registration of Jake and Zack was decided, after all, Jake had won in the last 3 years and even people in the sports media knew that Jake would be there.

Zack was studying at the university, but he always talked to Jake just like his other friends and so Zack said he was still training even after Coach Davis who helped him out.

Coach Davis said that Zack had a good chance of finishing the Chicago marathon in less than 3 hours and could even surprise and get a great time in that marathon, Jake was very happy to know that because he knew the effort that Zack continued to have in training.

"Coach Davis, as you well know we were lucky to get those next few months to train before the Chicago marathon and maybe we have a few more months before the NBA season starts."

"So I wanted to do that training to improve my time in the marathons because I know that I have improved a lot and I can improve my time in the races even more, and this may be the last chance to improve my training before the 2000 Olympics because I don't know if I have time to train for the next vacation."

Coach Davis knew that Jake was upset that he had not improved training when he asked last year, but Coach Davis could not have imagined that besides basketball and marathons Jake would still try to be an actor thereby wasting training time on vacation that he could have.

But since Jake decided to train, he knew he would have to agree with Jake's increase in training, and after spending so much time with Jake, Coach Davis learned to accept that Jake's body was different from other athletes.

Even though Coach Davis knew that Jake had a lot of resistance and so he was able to run 50 km every day in an average time to break the world record, he was afraid that Jake would try too hard and end up with an injury that would end his career in athletics and also in basketball.

But now he trusted that Jake had a much stronger body than all the athletes in the world he knew, so he would help Jake improve his training in the coming months and so he could follow Jake's training to make sure he didn't. could get hurt.

The biggest reason that Coach Davis wanted to deny that Jake tried was that he was trying to do what was considered impossible in marathons, running in less than 2 hours a 42.2 km marathon, was impossible because it required a lot of effort from the athlete to run up the limits for so long to break that record.

Jake thought he was capable because his stats have improved a lot since he managed to run for the first time in his current time, in addition, Jake had trained for many months to get better.

Jake's resistance statistic was now 45, his strength statistic is 43, and his agility statistic is 42, because of the conversation Jake had with the system he might not have the greatest stat in agility and strength, but already had achieved in resistance.

Certainly Jake had a much bigger statistic than big names in athletics, Jake thought he was able to run a marathon under 2 hours because he had the system and also because he trained a lot, Jake was sure that one-day champion athletes would also succeed run under 2 hours even without the help of the system.

In Jake's training, he was already running much faster than his current world record, so he runs 42.2 km in 122 minutes and 21 seconds, it was a great time and Jake was still over 50 km running at that speed average and thus ran 50 km in 145 minutes.

For an elite athlete to run a 42.2 km marathon in 145 minutes it would be excellent and Jake did that every day running 50 km, so Jake was sure he would be able to improve his training.

Even if he couldn't run in less than 120 minutes to break the limit, he could close that gap and hope to get more statistic points until he can run at that time.

After talking to Coach Davis, Jake started on the first day to try to run the 50 km in the time he normally ran, Coach Davis wanted to see if Jake had not really lost his ideal physical condition even though he had not been training for more than 6 months.

Jake would naturally not forget the techniques he had learned and running for him after training for over 2 years was very easy after 50 km Jake managed to run at the same time he was used to 6 months earlier and Coach Davis thought until Jake managed to run more easily.

So Coach Davis had no choice but to admit that Jake's body worked differently than other athletes, he approved that the next day Jake would try to improve his running time, to run a marathon in less than 2 hours Jake had to run 4 seconds faster per km and so he would take more than 160 seconds of the final time he could now.
