Update: This year’s 50 on Fire nominations will be open through October 10th, 2014. Submit now.

BostInno’s annual 50 on Fire comes back on December 4, and the list of nominees continues to grow by the day. As is the case every year, we want to ensure that everyone (both companies and individuals) who have been dominating in The Hub are involved. Nominations are open until September 30, so make sure you make your voice heard in the process. In case you’re curious, here’s where you can nominate. Keep in mind that there are numerous worthy nominees who, over the past year in Boston, have displayed all of the qualities that we associate with being “on fire.” Still, just to get the ball rolling, the BostInno sports and fitness sections – that’s Caroline and Hayden, to you – decided to pick a handful of the names that should be seen on the final list. Here are some worthy selections:

Caroline’s Fitness Picks

Christina LoddeFlywheel Sports indoor cycling instructor & Barry’s Bootcamp instructor. Full-time fitness professional.

ENERGYbitsHealthy, high protein, low calorie snack gives unlimited energy. One-hundred percent organic spirulina algae. Small green tablets that smell and taste … well, like algae. BUT they are incredible and worth tasting like fish food.

Stacey Schaedler: Founder of Stacey Schaedler Strength. Instructor at South Boston Yoga. From kettlebells to functional training and soft tissue/mobility work, she’s an all around fitness guru.

Turnstyle CycleIndoor cycling studio in Cambridge. RealRyder bikes and TRX classes compliment this tech-driven company whose focus is on the sensory experience rather than just a workout.

RacePakA monthly delivery or gift box that comes with samplings of nutritious pre- and post-race foods and non-edibles. Bars, protein powders and recovery tools are all bundled up and arrive on your doorstep.

Hayden’s Sports Picks

Fancred: A social media platform for sports fans, where even Jaguars fans can congregate (and cry on each other’s shoulders, most likely).

Draftkings: The perpetually growing daily fantasy site, which has really tapped into the market of fantasy gamers who may or may not have short attention spans.

CoachUp: They’re leading the charge in the private coaching industry, and made multiple demographics swoon by producing a one-minute video from their newest endorser: Julian Edelman.

Julian Edelman: Speaking of the Patriots receiver, he’s been absolutely crushing the game both on and off the field. This is more than merely a reference to the shirt inception battle he had with Gronk.

Krishna Ramchandran, CEO & Founder of Ubersense: Making sports video self analysis easy, so hot right now.
