Lately I have been developing pain in the upper thighs, both on the outer side of the thighs.

Nothing has changed in training patterns, equipment, etc.

Any ideas what could be causing it or on exercises, stretches etc. to help?

thanks

Is it your IT band?

If so, a foam roller can help with soreness.
