Summary

Jordan Adams will be one of those people who leave you puzzled on London Marathon day... how on earth can you run it with a fridge on your back?! But why stop there?

He will then straight away, go on to run 32 marathons in 32 days across Ireland alongside his brother - all to raise money and awareness for Familial FTD (a rare genetic form of dementia).

In this episode you will hear the tragic yet inspiring story of how the terminal disease has shaped his and his families lives. A truly powerful and moving listen.
