Prince William joins charity fun run
Wearing a Sport Relief T-shirt and odd socks - runners all wore one red sock handed out by the charity - William, 22, was a surprise entrant in the run near Blackfriars Bridge in London, one of a host of venues for the event up and down Britain. The prince's younger brother Harry, 19, was also going to participate but had to pull out because of an injury. "I've been training for about two minutes," William told the BBC before the race. "I've run round the block. I've done a bit of cross country but it was pretty bad." William went on to finish in a time of 6 minutes 10 seconds. Other celebrities taking part included Olympic rower Steve Redgrave, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay and singer Rachel Stevens. Sport Relief, set up by Comic Relief and BBC Sport, aims to tackle poverty in Britain and abroad. Its debut in 2002 raised more than $14 million.
