In an attempt to boost morale, Chris Hughes joined his pal on the bike as Sam continued on with his challenge. Following their meeting, Chris went to his Instagram stories to share clips of their cycle together.

Hits Radio shared a clip of the former reality star on the phone where he said: 'I'm just sat on the table. I've got Game Ready on, which is like a bucket ice machine. 'We've completed a marathon. It was going great until my calf popped. Don't really know what that means but something has happened. So I can barely walk on it. 'But we completed the marathon and we are going to do the bike in a bit. Let's see how that goes.' This Morning airs on ITV.
