Living up to her Sporty Spice name! Melanie

The Spice Girls may be over and she may live in London, but Melanie Chisholm will always be Sporty Spice from Liverpool.
The pop star returned to her roots on Saturday as she travelled home to Merseyside to take part in a charity run.
Revisiting her Sporty persona in a pair of leggings, hoodie, shorts and trainers, the 39-year-old joined the last few miles of the three-day run.

The run was to raise money for the Alder Hey Childrens hospital and Sheffield’s The Children’s Hospital Charity in memory of those who died in the Hillsborough disaster.
Over three days, runners covered 96 miles from Sheffield Wednesday’s Hillsborough ground to Liverpool FC's Anfield stadium.
Ahead of the run, Mel C told the Liverpool Echo: 'I'm really looking forward to joining these guys as they complete their incredible run.

'To raise money for children's charities while running in the memory of Hillsborough – something close to my heart – makes it extra special.
'Running 96 miles in three days is a phenomenal achievement and something I'm glad I'm not doing personally, but I'm pleased to be able to lend my support by crossing the finishing line with them.'
