The Holt Bolt is a 6-8km military inspired obstacle race series on the Bald Hills flats. It is run on and around the nationally recognised cross country course of St Paul’s School. The course has it all, from the South Pine River to the vast expanses of bushland, paddocks and grass fields. Scattered throughout the course are mud flats, dams, ditches and hills making this course the ideal location for Brisbane’s first obstacle racing series. There are six Holt Bolt’s each year and there will be a winner of the series as well as winners of each race. Participants are encouraged to not only compete against others but compete against their previous times.

Aside from the shorter distance comparative to other obstacle races in surrounding areas, the main stand out factor in The Holt Bolt races is the extensive number of obstacles incorporated into the event. Where previous obstacle races have had up to a number of kilometres between obstacles, this course has been structured so that competitors are continuously being challenged by plenty of obstacle structures placed continuously throughout the race.

The obstacles range from military inspired climbing frames, rope climbs and commando crawls through sand to mud runs, monkey bars through dams and balancing exercises along the South Pine River.
