Its in my upper quads.

Until this I was agreeing with others because it seemed like you were describing Shin Splints.
However some things to consider with Muscle groups and exercise.
IF you are working out hard every day, than maybe you are pushing your self a little too hard and over doing it. You could do work of a different type a couple days a week in order to break the running and stress on your legs but still getting exercise.
Another thing to consider might be how much you are sweating and how hot the area is while you are running.
You might be losing too much salt in your system, if you eat healthy and do not get a lot of salt in your system. Lack of salt in the system with large amounts of exercise in the heat can lead to muscle cramps.
I recall we had to take salt pills on occasion while doing army training in new mexico and ft bliss.
I suggest finding some other cardio work to do that does not involve the legs for a day or two a week to give them a break, however if you are still having troubles after the rest...
Keep your fluids up, don't wait to you get thirsty, see if you can find some salt pills and take one before going on runs.
Of course you could go to the doc and get a good physical and ask about your problem and maybe it is something none of us know right now that is the problem.
Hope that helps.
