  • Meet India's Fastest Ironman Triathlete Raghul Sankaranarayanan
    FITNESS Meet India’s fastest Ironman Triathlete Raghul Sankaranarayanan Reji Varghese JUNE 11, 2018 13:27 IST UPDATED: JUNE 12, 2018 17:36 IST An Ironman Triathlon is an extreme form of the Triathalon and consists of a 3.86-km swim, a 180-km bicycle ride and a 42.2-km marathon run, raced in that order and without a break. I It was a warm evening in Port Elizabeth, South Africa; the sun had just begun to sink over the horizon. Raghul Sankaranarayanan vaguely remembers the crowds lined up across the last kilometre cheering the weary contestants on. What’s clearly etched in his mind is the pain — the pain from having swum 3.8 kms, cycled 180 kms and run 42.2 kms without a break in the last 11 hours. With each thud of his shoes on the asphalt, he felt an electric pain shoot up from his ankles to his knees. There was a spasm on his right hamstring, which was close to locking up. He crossed the finish line and looked at his watch: it read 10 hours, 56 minutes and 59 seconds. Raghul was speechless. He had just broken the Indian record of 11 hours and 3 minutes jointly held by Kaustabh Radkar and Akshay Samel. He was now officially the fastest Indian Ironman. An Ironman Triathlon is an extreme form of the Triathalon and consists of a 3.86-km swim, a 180-km bicycle ride and a 42.2-km marathon run, raced in that order and without a break. It is widely considered one of the most gruelling one-day sporting events in the world, with a limited time of 17 hours to complete the race.

    Students’ Research-2 Global Media Journal – Indian Edition Sponsored by the University of Calcutta www.caluniv.ac.in ISSN 2249 – 5835 Summer Issue/June-2016/Vol. 7/No. 1 SOCIAL MEDIA AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT by Gayathri Chandrashekar Student of MA Communication, MOP Vaishnav College for Women, Chennai Email; [email protected] and Nirupa Sampath Student of MA Communication, MOP Vaishnav College for Women, Chennai Email; [email protected] Abstract: The recent Chennai floods taught us many lessons, one of it being the importance of social media during a disaster as devastating as this. Though the damage was heavy, one thing that was clear is the spirit of humanity. People from various walks of lives came together to help one another in this unforeseen calamity and social media played a major role in bringing people together. Taking this as a case study we aim to study the uses and gratification of social media at the time of a crisis. We have used different methodologies including interviews and surveys to study in-depth about how people used social media before the calamity, during and post the calamity. At the end of the article, we aim to get a thorough understanding of the role, analyze the pros and cons of social media in a disaster situation. Keywords: Social media, disaster management, Chennai floods, uses and gratification of social media, importance of social media, social media’s role in disaster management. Introduction The Chennai floods was an unprecedented disaster in it being a once in a lifetime event. Compared to the Tsunami of 2004 where facebook was in its infancy while twitter and whatsapp were yet to be conceived of, this was also the first large scale disaster in the age of social media – namely facebook and twitter.

The report would not have been possible without the active and invaluable participation of several local organisations. These organisations participated in the shared methodology sessions, recruited volunteers for the clean-ups, and recorded data of the waste and brand audits. They include: Centre for Environment Education (Kolkata); Chintan Environmental Research and Action Group (Delhi); Citizen consumer and civic Action Group, Arappor Iyakkam, Chittlapakkam Rising and Vettiver Collective (Chennai); Hasiru Dala and SWM Round Table (Bangalore); Stree Mukti Sanghatana (Mumbai); SWaCH (Pune); Thanal (Trivandrum); V-Recycle (Goa); Zero Waste Himalayas and Integrated Mountain Initiative (The Himalayas). The pan-India effort was excellently coordinated by Pratibha Sharma, and received excellent communication support from Sherma Benosa, for which we are appreciative. The coordinators from each of the participating organisations played a critical role in making the audits an invaluable part of the conversations on waste and plastic in each of their cities. We thank Anne Larracas for conducting the training on the methodology, and for providing excellent comments on the data and report. The methodology is based on the excellent foundational work by Mother Earth Foundation, GAIA Asia Pacific, Greenpeace and Citizen consumer and civic Action Group (CAG).
