It's extremely difficult to "get jacked". You won't do it by accident.
There's no evidence that strength training hampers running, in fact it's the opposite. Maybe if you're hauling around 30 extra pounds of muscle but that's about it. I'm very hesistant in these threads to tell people do this or don't do that. Fitness is far more about sustainability and enjoyment than what exactly you're doing.

Lol, I remember talking to a friend who is a bit of a gym rat, and she would get so annoyed at girls who go "oh, I don't do weight training, I don't want to get lumpy". Yah, that's never going to happen because you have to be really dedicated and focused to get "lumpy", and doubly so for women. People think just lifting weights will all of a sudden get you all jacked. If only it were that easy.
