You can also use a bindable run. Useful stuff, especially if one wants to add some text formatting (colors, fontweight etc.).

Here's an original class:
Here are some additional improvements.
And that's all in one piece of code:

public class BindableRun : Run
    {
        public static readonly DependencyProperty BoundTextProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("BoundText", typeof(string), typeof(BindableRun), new PropertyMetadata(new PropertyChangedCallback(BindableRun.onBoundTextChanged)));

        private static void onBoundTextChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            ((Run)d).Text = (string)e.NewValue;
        }

        public String BoundText
        {
            get { return (string)GetValue(BoundTextProperty); }
            set { SetValue(BoundTextProperty, value); }
        }

        public BindableRun()
            : base()
        {
            Binding b = new Binding("DataContext");
            b.RelativeSource = new RelativeSource(RelativeSourceMode.FindAncestor, typeof(FrameworkElement), 1);
            this.SetBinding(DataContextProperty, b);
        }
    }
