My roller is an indoor sports complex, complete with no a/c, huge ventilation fans that were only on for regionals, and a concession stand. It's a pretty big place, lots of teams from different states come to play here (big tournaments). Nice SportCourt rinks with regular, ice hockey boards and glass (except the glass is smaller). In-house runs two, continuous time 20 minute halves and tournaments run either that format or two 15 minute periods with time stoppage. Pucks only, although they aren't always black, which sucks...
Heat on SportCourt used to be a big problem for me before I started to train right. Lifting, loss of a lot of that excess fat, and running all help to combat it. I can go a 2 hour pickup with no breaks absolutely fine now (it was about 90 in the rink last time, no a/c). 'Course, the games for in-house are way tougher, since my A and B run back to back, and we aren't allowed to have water on the rink, so whatever is on the bench is usually gone by halftime. It's a bit harder, but what don't kill ya only makes ya stronger...
