After pushing my heartrate over 85% of max and then allowing it to level off, a sensation that every hair follicle in my body is trying to explode sets in for a few seconds. It's cool but strange feeling, kind of like slapping on after shave everywhere!
Does anybody experience a similar phenomenon? What causes it? :confused:

Its adrenaline, your body thinks it is a cat getting ready for a fight. You may sometimes notice that you get waves of goosebumps also.
