What's Cooking with CoachLessons from an Outdoor RinkI built an outdoor hockey rink. It was an absolutely surreal experience. Deep down, well below its superficial roots, the outdoor rink taught me so much more about myself (and life in general), and despite learning some of these lessons earlier in life, the outdoor rink became a reminder of those things, those little things, the important things, that sometimes we forget. So, let's not forget any longer.
