the powerlifting coach at my school says not to run at all. but this sounds like a bad idea
im thinking like half a mile jog and some sprints. my split right now is 4 days a week for mil press - deadlift - rest - bench - squat.
when would it be optimal for me to get my sprints and mile and a half run in?

This isn't the MISC. Save all the extra bull**** for it. As for GPP I would keep it away from your leg days and not before lifting. Just make sure that it doesn't interfere with your performance in the weightroom. If it does, your doing something wrong. I do believe there are a few links in the stickies that talk about GPP and putting it in your program.

You can ALWAYS do cardio... every day, after you lift. Or many hours before. It will not negatively affect you assuming your cardio does not consist of marathon training. Make sure you warm up and then do a proper cool down (keep jogging slowly until your heart rate comes down... otherwise your blood might pool at your feet and you could faint if you stop abruptly).

I would say to separate cardio/ strength training days- and I recommend cardio (it's what we humans are good at)
Molecular responses to strength and endurance training: Are they incompatible?
John A. Hawley
Abstract: Simultaneously training for both strength and endurance results in a compromised adaptation, compared with training for either exercise mode alone. This has been variously described as the concurrent training effect or the interference effect. It now appears that the genetic and molecular mechanisms of adaptation induced by resistance- and endurance-based training are distinct, with each mode of exercise activating and (or) repressing specific subsets of genes and cellular signalling pathways.
