Away from Pippa Middleton's exciting world of gun-toting lawyers, dwarf-filled parties and bondage gear, the royals continue their stately work.

It was announced today that Prince Harry will attend the London Marathon in his capacity as Patron of the London Marathon Charitable Trust. Prince Harry will make the presentations to the winners of the mini marathon, the elite men and women and the wheelchair races. The Prince will also meet a selection of volunteers involved with the administration of the race and members of the St. John Ambulance.

Somehow, we feel this is one announcement that 'aint gonna get much coverage.
