One way to do it, is just to insert another write.table() command giving
the text you want to write.  Here's a simple example:

myfile <- "c:/temp/junk.csv"
for(i in 1:5) {
df <- data.frame(x=rnorm(3), y=rnorm(3))
write.table(paste0("Run #", i), myfile, sep="\t", append=(i!=1),
col.names=FALSE, row.names=FALSE)
 write.table(df, myfile, sep="\t", append=TRUE, col.names=FALSE)
}
