Last night actress Natalie Dormer watched the season premiere of Game of Thrones with her legs up while eating “whatever she wanted,” thanks to her London Marathon performance. Dormer, who plays Margaery Tyrell on the HBO series, ran 3:51:21 yesterday. 

“I’m a tiny bit peeved,” she told reporters after the marathon. She ran 24 seconds slower than her marathon debut of 3:50:57 in the 2014 London Marathon.

The British actress, 34, was one of 900 runners raising money for The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children’s ChildLine service, according to the Telegraph. When asked about the cause, she said she didn’t care about her time because her race was for children in need. Dormer raised about $7,200 for the charity. 

Dormer talked about her race with Independent when she was finished.
