The Fun Run Chitra Paratama 2025, themed "Rolling Forward: 25 Years of Innovation," was successfully held on Sunday, January 19, 2025. This running event aimed to encourage the community to adopt a healthy lifestyle in an enjoyable manner.
Taking place at the Grand City Food Center in Balikpapan, the event attracted 1,030 participants, ranging from novice runners to local running communities. The chosen route of 5 kilometers, featuring minimal obstacles, allowed all participants to join regardless of age or prior running experience.
Hidayat Rahman, the Director of PT Chitra Paratama, noted that the high enthusiasm for running among the public was a key reason for organizing this event.

By collaborating with local communities, we hope this event will raise awareness about the importance of health through running, which is accessible to everyone," Hidayat stated in a press release on Tuesday, February 4, 2025.
