Pick a quality program like the Firm, and it will take you through stretching, balance, strength, a little cardioi, ab workout and a cool down. For me it works well because it is a good workout but not so hard that my legs are tired for running.
Bugs, I completely agree. I find doing a video is easier for me to commit to (once you start it, it's hard to say "I can stop at 2 sets"), but it is more a personal what works from you. I am far from the running expert, but try to balance strengthening your legs with a mix of core and arm exercises. To me, it is a bit unbalanced to focus only on one group and the musician in me thinks that any lack of balance could lead to danger.
I could be wrong. Very likely I am, but I wanted to throw in my 2 cents.
