Ran from the house out to the W&OD trail, down and back for a mile and back to the house. The run totaled 5.2 miles total in 41:57. I'm still having minor leg problems but my IT Band and hip seem to be doing much better. I did have a few issues with my right knee where I seemed to lose power below my knee. I'll continue to monitor/strengthen with my exercises in the gym, as well as stretch to mitigate any future problems. Other than that, I'm now going to completely ignore any further pain I have and start running my butt off again. I'm really looking forward to heading out to Denver for work at the end of the month to test running in altitude.
On another note, I had my interview for a job out in Denver and it went really well. Hopefully I'll hear something in the next month to see if I get the job. It's a great opportunity for the future, so I'm hoping for the best. It would be nice to get out of the heat/humidity of the DC area for some high-altitude running.
