The 'Mummy Diaries' star took to social media to ask whether it is "too late" to begin preparing for this year's race, which takes place in October, as she has given the idea of running some "serious thought".

Sam posted on her Instagram Story: "Is it too late to do the London Marathon this year?

"I'm not a runner at all, I've never been into running so I am pretty sure a lot of training will be needed. But I feel like it could be an incredible experience? I need some advice?"

The former 'TOWIE' star got a mixed response, with one user saying: "It takes over your absolute life. The training is so, so hard but it’s definitely one for the bucket list."

Another replied: "You would need to start training pretty much straightaway for October."

Sam later wrote: "This needs some serious thought. Thank you for all your advice and encouragement. I'm going to keep reading."

The 31-year-old reality star recently told her boyfriend that she wants to have a third baby.

Sam - who has kids Paul Jr, five, and Rosie, three, with Paul Knightley - is hopeful of expanding her brood as she doesn't want a large age gap between her children although Paul is less enthusiastic.

She said: "If a third baby comes along, breastfeeding, co-sleeping, we don't want too much of a big gap."

But Paul replied: "I'm not having another baby yet."
