Marathon brothers pass £1m mark

Two brothers who featured in the recent London Marathon, running the 26.2 miles with a fridge on their back, have surpassed their £1m online fundraising goal.

Jordan and Cian Adams, known as the FTD Brothers, ran the marathon to raise cash for Alzheimer Society of Ireland and their non-profit, the FTD Brothers Foundation. They both risk getting dementia in their 40s.

The pair lost their mum, Geraldine, to frontotemporal dementia (FTD) in 2016, aged just 52, and both have inherited the gene that caused it.
