Could be your Clutch Master Cylinder on the way out. Mine started feeling Sticky on a long drive up country, after a few hours of driving, the top of the clutch went sloppy and the bite point on the floor.

Check your fluid level to see if its leaking. Mine wasnt leaking out, but the seal had gone. I replaced both the Master and Slave at the same time as if one goes, often the other wont be far away.
