Balancing strength sessions with running when legs feel heavy

I started adding squats and lunges twice a week to support running. Now every easy run after leg day feels like I'm moving through wet cement. I don't think the weights are unusually heavy, but the soreness lasts longer than expected. Would you cut strength volume while adapting, put the sessions after hard runs to protect easy days, or simply allow more recovery? I'm training for general fitness rather than a race, so consistency matters more than maximizing either discipline.
