The most likely thing is the small rubber hoses on each the front brakes. They are flexible so the wheels can turn but tend to break down on the inside because of it. When they start to break down you can force fluid through them with the breke pedal but because they are starting to be blocked inside the hose it takes longer for the fluid to return because it's not under as much pressure. Therefore they hold the pressure on the brakes pads and lock them up a little. As the brake pads heat up, they lock up. That is where I would start looking. Good luck.
