After work, I went for a quick 0.2-mile jog to test out the right knee and it was noticeably sore and stiff from sitting around all day.  Not wanting to risk anything, I jumped on the Elliptical Machine and ran for an even 5.0 miles.  This considerably improved the range of motion for my right leg, it still feels week.

My daily non-running workout consisted of 300 sit-ups and a 100-second wall sit.

Knee/IT-Band is improving! However, I’ll give it a few more days on the elliptical.
