The brothers have raised £1.4 million so far.
Two brothers attempting to run a marathon in each of Ireland’s 32 counties will be passing through the midlands this week.
Jordan and Cian Adams, otherwise known as the "FTD Brothers" are aiming to help raise awareness of dementia while also fundraising for support organisations in the UK and Ireland.
They've raised £1.4 million so far and are just over £20,000 from reaching their next target of £1.5 million.
After completing a marathon in Mullingar earlier this month, the brothers began their journey through Portlaoise at 9:30am this morning, and are set to be in Tullamore tomorrow before finishing in Dublin this Thursday.
