Stay Fit, Milwaukee Style
“A lot of times you just have those off days where you’re like, ‘Man, I don’t want to go to the gym today. It’s beautiful out.’ So [teammates and I] go to the lake and do hill runs or run along the shore at Bradford Beach. The nice thing about Milwaukee is having the lake in the summer. Some cities, the weather’s nice but there’s nothing to look at. With the lakefront that we have, it’s always really just a nice distraction where you can get a workout in and it’s beautiful out there, too.” — Steve Novak, Brown Deer native, NBA veteran, current Milwaukee Buck
