Running isn't an ideal form of cardio due to the fact that you are most likely going past your target heart rate and will not only be burning fat but also muscle. I would suggest that unless there is another reason why you are running you switch to a different form of cardio and adhere to your target heart rate.
As for running after training legs or training legs after running, I would definitely encourage you to split up your weights and cardio into different parts of the day if possible. Do your cardio in the morning and weights later in the day.

i always do my cardio first thing in the morning and weights at around 4pm

why are you not meant to run???
how long do you recommend the sprint intervals
how about something like this?
sprint for 10secs, jog for 1min, walk for 2 then repeat
