The Marathon Man Raising Awareness of Rare Form of Dementia – May 15th, 2025

A man who's running 32 marathons in Ireland to raise awareness of a rare, early onset dementia will be in Killarney this Sunday. Jordan Adams' late mother Geraldine was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia when she was 47 years old. Jordan and his brother Cian carry a family mutation which means they have a 99.9% chance of contracting the brain disorder. Frontotemporal dementia often starts between ages 45 and 65.
