How many of you both run and strength train in a given week?

I'm currently doing strength training 3x a week, running 4x a week. Mondays are the only days where I have both scheduled. I'm curious for those of you that do both, what kind of strength training do you do, and do you run first or lift first?

Congrats on the kid! I’ve also heard to lift first due to risk of injury. It makes sense to me - there’s a higher chance of acute injuries during heavy squats or deadlifts if I’m fatigued and get sloppy on form
