28 May
Summary
- Jordan and Cian Adams ran 33 marathons in 33 consecutive days.

- Their mother was diagnosed with FTD in her 40s and died at 52.
Jordan and Cian Adams, known as the FTD Brothers, are set to complete their monumental challenge of running 33 marathons in 33 consecutive days. Their ambitious endeavor aims to raise funds and awareness for frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a condition that tragically impacted their family.
The brothers are expected to cross the finish line in Dublin city centre between 14:00 and 14:30 local time today, May 28, 2026. This final marathon marks the culmination of an incredible journey that began with the London Marathon and continued with runs in all 32 counties of Ireland over the preceding 32 days.
Their efforts have already garnered significant support, raising over £1.5 million to combat FTD. The cause is particularly close to their hearts, as their mother, Geraldine, was diagnosed with the condition in her 40s and passed away at the age of 52. The brothers themselves carry the gene associated with FTD and anticipate developing the condition in their 40s.
Friends and family will join the Adams brothers for the final 10km of their run, supporting them as they reach their goal in Merrion Square, Dublin. Supporters have gathered from near and far to witness the conclusion of this inspiring feat of endurance and dedication.
