Natalie ran the London Marathon on behalf of children's charity Barnardo’s.
"A lot of people apply to run it for Barnardo's so I'm just really glad that they picked me," she said of her chosen charity.
She has been training for the marathon while filming The Hunger Games: Mockingjay in Atlanta. "It has been frantic but the crew have been very supportive," she told the Daily Telegraph. "Filming starts very early when I imagine a lot of marathon runners are getting in their training before work so I have just been running whenever I can."
So far the actress has raised £6,413 for Barnardo's and will certainly receive more donations after today.
On her fundraising page, she writes: "I'm training whilst shooting 'Hunger Games: Mockingjay' in Atlanta. So rest assured there will be plenty of ridiculous alarm times and running the streets after long days on set. My goal is to finish the 26.3 miles in under 4 hours! Huge thanks in advance. I am grateful for any donation no matter how big or small. Every penny makes a difference and it's going to a cause I believe has a massive impact on many childrens lives."
