So I just started c25K on Friday...and something I noticed was after I was done my legs began this ridiculous itching festival in my pants.... same thing happened today(Different pair of pants)! I haven't attempted to run in a long, Long, LONG time... but I do remember having this problem in the past... So, anyways, I googled this...and it's a real thing! Does anyone else experience this problem? If so, what is your remedy? Thinking I'll have to start back up on over the counter Zyrtec again...hopefully that will help!

    This happened to me a lot when I first started exercising. Hasn't happened in a long time. It went away after my body adjusted to what I was putting it through. LOL

    Well, I'm glad to hear that... hoping it will just go away after a few weeks! Drives me nuts!

    I thought my doctor called it Chronic Urticaria.. I have been pronouncing it wrong for years. I have had it for a very very long time and it comes and goes. If I do not take a Zyrtec about every other day I will break out in hives. My doctor told me it was also known as Chronic Hives. Mine does not come about from working out or sweating or anything. It just happens whenever it feels like it. I am pretty sure I will have it for the rest of my life.
