I took Claritin for my allergies two nights in a row a couple of weeks ago for the first time ever, and was unable to run my standard 200 meter workout the next morning. I was only able to run 4 instead of the normal 8 200's and they were very slow - the Claritin sapped my speed completely. I don't know if Allegra would do the same thing. I also have a few other medical issue going on, so I can't blame the Claritin completely, but it did seem to slow me down for a day or two.
