Sport during Ramadan in Oman

After having iftar and praying Maghrib, Isha, and Taraweeh prayers, many people in Oman like to spend the cooler nights indulging in sports.
Some people hit the gym, while others go for simpler activities, like jogging or walking, to offset their heavier meals. The most common post-iftar activity for ladies and families is walking, while young men take to the streets and beaches to play pick-up games of football, volleyball, or basketball until midnight or just before suhoor. These are great alternatives for the other after-Iftar activities of choice, which include hours spent playing carom and video games in cafes.
