To the sheer delight of runners, organizers and onlookers, Kate Middleton made a surprise appearance at the Anglesey Ring of Fire marathon.
The Duchess of Cambridge, 31, is back to work (sort of). She made her first official appearance since the birth of Prince George — a surprise for all — at the Ring of Fire marathon in Anglesey, Wales. It's a three-day race around Anglesey Island. 92 runners partook in the event, including Canadians.

Looking lovely and notably calm in a silk top from Zara, black skinny jeans, a grey-green Ralph Lauren blazer and black wedges, the new mom talked to Anglesey locals about the marathon, motherhood, pregnancy and baby stuff. She also shared that five-week-old Prince George was back home with her mom, Carole Middleton, that he's "sweet" and a good sleeper.
Though Prince William was scheduled to open the event, Kate's appearance was a huge surprise for all. She and William met with the runners and marathon organizers on a hill at the start of the race. Kate joined in on the countdown before William rung a bell, said, "The circus is off!" and the race began. Fun!
"The Duchess is absolutely beautiful, lovely," said Andrea Hall, according to People.com (her husband was running in the marathon). "She looks amazing, I can't believe she had a baby only a month ago."
