FTD Brothers Run Marathons for Dementia Research

About this episode

Jordan Adams and his brother Cian are running marathons across Ireland to raise funds for dementia research in honor of their mother.

Jordan Adams and his brother Cian, the FTD Brothers, are embarking on an extraordinary challenge: running a full marathon in every one of Irelands thirty-two counties over thirty-two days, with a 25kg fridge strapped to Jordans back. Their mission is to raise funds for dementia research, a cause deeply personal to them as their mother died from frontotemporal dementia. The brothers are receiving overwhelming support, especially in places like Fermanagh, where their grandparents were from. Despite the physical strain, the brothers are finding strength in the support and the opportunity to honor their familys heritage. With twenty-one marathons left, they aim to prove that endurance can illuminate the path for families affected by dementia. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
