Jake Gyllenhaal can handle the hills

Jake Gyllenhaal was among the 1,500 or so runners who hoofed it at the Chilmark Road Race on Martha's Vineyard over the weekend. The 5K race along scenic Middle Road is exceptionally hilly, but that didn't seem to bother the "Brokeback Mountain" actor, who's doubtless learned a thing or two about endurance from his buddy Lance Armstrong. There was no sign of Gyllenhaal's sweetheart Reese Witherspoon at the finish line, but he did stop to say hello to fellow runners Doug Liman, director of "The Bourne Identity," and Tamara Buchwald, daughter-in-law of the late Art Buchwald. (Tamara had a tiny role in Liman's movie "Jumper.")

Reese Witherspoon is just Jake Gyllenhaal's fauxmance friend.
He's adorable. Doug Liman should make a movie with him.
