I was about to get out of my house and impatiently jogging but the rain was beginning.

I was about to get out of my house and jogging but the rain was starting.

Are they OK?

Thank you

Hi, I was about to get out of my house and impatiently jogging but the rain was beginning. I was about to get out of my house and jogging but the rain was starting. 'Get out of my house' is OK, but I don't think it sounds very natural here.
