January 20th in Barrington History

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Welcome to January 20th and Day 20 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage.

Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.

On this day, January 20th in 1889, Leadbelly, (Huddi William Ledbetter), Blues musician, who wrote ‘Goodnight Irene’ and ‘The Rock Island Line’ was born. He’s also well known for popularizing Midnight Special, a traditional folk song thought to have originated among prisoners in the American South. Covered by Credence Clearwater Revival on their 1969 Willie and the Poor Boys album, The song refers to the passenger train Midnight Special and its “ever-loving light” which is reminiscent of imagery from gospel songs about the light of salvation. Now that’s something worth singing about!

Sometimes you show up for the workout… and end up finding your people. ❤️💙

We had to grab a picture after class when we realized these four all showed up twinning 😂 But it also felt like the perfect little reminder of what makes CFB so special.

Inside these walls, friendships are built between sets, during warm-ups, after class, and somewhere in the middle of suffering through a workout together. 🫶

The fitness is great. But the people you get to do it with? That’s the best part.

If you’ve been looking for a place to get stronger, have some fun, and find people who will genuinely be glad to see you walk through the door, come check out what CFB is all about.

Your first class could be the start of a whole lot more than a workout. ❤️💙

🥾 OCTOBER RUCK CHALLENGE IS ON! 🍂

You may have seen it in the newsletter and we know a few of you have already gotten a head start 👀 but it’s time to officially kick off our CFB October Ruck Challenge!

The challenge is simple:

🥾 Grab your ruck
📍 Get outside
💪 Ruck as many miles as you can throughout October
🏆 Most miles at the end of the month WINS! (Log miles on the whiteboard at CFB)

That’s it. Nothing fancy. Just another reason to get outside, get moving, add some extra steps to your day, and maybe get a little competitive with your CFB crew. 😏

Walk the neighborhood. Take the dog. Grab a friend. Ruck before or after class. Stack up those miles however you can!

AND — we’re finishing the month together! 🙌
Weather permitting, we’ll be doing a CFB Community Ruck on Saturday, October 31! More details to come as we get closer.

You have ALL of October — so get moving!

Just look at that cheese pull! 🤤🍕

You can always spot an authentic Italian pizzeria the second you walk in from the cozy, neighborhood vibes to that unbelievable aroma in the air. We stopped by Primo Pizza and tried a little bit of everything:

✨ The Primo (loaded up with Italian sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, & green peppers)

✨ Stuffed Pepperoni Pizza (the cheese pull on this pie is NEXT LEVEL!)

✨ Gyros Pizza (topped with cool tzatziki, tomatoes, & onions)

✨ Tiramisu for the ultimate sweet finish

✨ Washed it all down with an ice-cold RC Cola—a classic Chicago pizza pairing!

You can truly taste the authenticity and tradition in every single bite. Save this post for your next pizza run in Barrington! 👇🔥

This is the LAST MONDAY before Bring a Friend Week 👀💪

So here’s your assignment: think of someone. Ask them. Bring them. No more “I’ve been meaning to invite them.” 😂

🔥 Saturday, Oct. 3 at 9:45 AM
Kick things off with our beginner-friendly partner workout.

🔥 Oct. 5–10
Bring a friend to ANY CFB class — completely FREE for them.

And YES, we’re making it a competition. 😏 The CFB member who brings the most friends wins a month’s supply of O2!

They don’t need to be “in shape.” They don’t need CrossFit experience. They just need YOU to get them through the door.

Who are you bringing?! Tag them below. 👇
