[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]Good morning and welcome to March 13th and Day 72 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.
Our song for today is rapper, Flo Rida‘s “Good Feeling” … just because of the feeling in the air right now with the return of both warmer weather and full-day, every-day school in the Barrington 220 School District. Exactly one year ago today, on March 13th of 2020, Barrington 220 schools superintendent, Dr. Brian Harris, announced the closure of our schools due to the rapid worldwide spread of coronavirus. “Good feeling” doesn’t fully describe how it feels to be on the other side of this pandemic, but the energy of this song comes close!!!
“Good Feeling” was released late August, 2011 and peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Flo Rida’s sixth top-ten and fourth top-five single on the chart. The song became a top ten hit in 16 countries. The song features acoustic-driven guitars, computerized beats and charging keyboards over a prominent sample from Avicii’s song “Levels“, which in turn samples Etta James’s 1962 gospel-tinged hit “Something’s Got a Hold on Me.” The first use of the Etta James vocal sample in a popular track was by Pretty Lights in the song “Finally Moving” in 2006, with a remix surfacing in 2008.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Song of the Day” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]

🌟 Client Bright Spot 🌟
Each Friday, I ask my CFB Nutrition clients to share a “bright spot” from their week — something that made them feel proud, empowered, or simply joyful.
This one stopped me in my tracks:
💬 "All three of my kids can wrap their arms around me again."
Yes — losing weight, shedding body fat, improving health markers… those things are incredible. But this? This is what it`s really about.
✨ It’s about getting your life back.
✨ It’s about being present for the people you love.
✨ It’s about feeling connected to your body — and your purpose.
✨ It’s about moments that a scale could never measure.
Non-scale victories like this remind us why we show up every day.
If you`re ready to experience what it`s like to really take control of your health — and gain more than you ever thought possible — the CFB Nutrition Program is here for you.
📝 Ready to start your journey? DM me or click the link in bio to join the CFB Nutrition Program. Let’s create your next bright spot. 💛

Not All Produce Is Created Equal. 🥦🍓
Our food system is flooded with pesticides — many linked to hormone disruption, neurological damage, and even cancer.
Here’s the good news: you can dramatically reduce your exposure by following the EWG’s Dirty Dozen & Clean 15 lists:
🍓 Dirty Dozen → Fruits & veggies with the highest pesticide residues.
✅ Whenever possible, choose organic for these.
✨ But remember: even conventionally grown produce is still better than ultra-processed foods.
🥑 Clean 15 → Produce with minimal pesticide residue — typically safe to buy conventional.
💧 Pro tip: Always rinse all produce well, even those with a rind like watermelon!
If navigating nutrition feels overwhelming, that’s what we’re here for.
At CrossFit Barrington, our 1:1 Nutrition Coaching helps you:
✅ Understand what’s actually healthy
