I like to do more cardio, but it depends on what your goals are.

I'll start with a 1mile jog on a track or a treadmill, then spend 5-10 minutes stretching out, after that I'll do a couple sets on a resistance machine focusing on my upper body.

Then I'll get into my main workout where I'll jog for 20-30 minutes, do another set or two of the resistance machines (again upper body for me), then spin on a cycle keeping high cadence (90rpm+).

Then cooldown with an easy 1mile jog/walk, then stretch out again for 5-10 minutes.

or I'll spend about 60-90 minutes in the pool doing laps.

That was my typical workout last winter, just joined a gym yesterday, but I'll prolly pick up a similar routine since I want to do a triathlon in the spring.
