Answer 1

Maybe you were running on grass?

Answer 2

Its because you sweat, i get that, x

Answer 3

when you sweat, the pores on your skin opens up. that's where the sweat comes out, now when its open, a lot of things happen. probably some dust gets into your pores mixed with some sweat, that's what makes it itchy. that's why after running. you need to take a bath so the dust doesn't stick to your pores.

Answer 4

It might be the combination of sweat and some sort of moisturizer you use on your body. Your pores open up for sweat to get out, but if there's anything else around it can also get in, like lotion or environmental irritants.  

Answer 5

Sometimes sweat can make you itch.

I promise you its the blood circulating through out your legs and body. This will go away if you keep jogging like 2-3  times a week. It will go away in about a week.
