Burns Outdoor Obstacle Training, or BOOTS, has been a cornerstone of fun, fitness and community in my part of Sydney for nearly a decade. Nestled on two acres in beautiful Bringelly, it has welcomed families, athletes and adventure seekers with obstacle courses, Ninja warrior challenges and group events for all ages. Founded by Wayne and Lorelai, the business was born from a passion for fitness after their son Javier's type 1 diabetes diagnosis. What began as backyard obstacles grew into a renowned training ground, even catching the attention of TV shows like The Bachelorette. It has also helped to shape future athletes like 11-year-old Hamish, who, after six years of training, placed third at the Ultimate Ninja Athlete Association National Championship and will represent Australia at the world championships in Dallas this July. As Burns Outdoor Obstacle Training prepares to close its doors at the end of 2025, this is the final chance to experience it. Whether you are a first-timer or a returning visitor, do not miss out. I thank Wayne and Lorelai.
