Josie and Lane’s story began in 2022 at Yellowstone Fitness, where a chance encounter sparked something neither of them expected. In the middle of her workout, Josie, on a whim, struck up a brief conversation with Lane. While it was a fleeting moment, it stuck with both of them. A few days later, fate stepped in at a local bar where Lane witnessed Josie say hello to her friends - his brother and sister-in-law. As it turns out, Josie had already crossed paths with Lane’s brother, sister-in-law, and a few friends from his circle—creating a thread that would eventually weave their lives together. With this discovery, Lane’s sister-in-law, along with a mutual friend of Josie’s from Carroll, decided to play a little bit of matchmaker. A few nights later, Josie was invited to a gathering around a fire, where she and Lane finally had the chance to slow down and get to know each other. The very next week, Lane spotted Josie again at the gym. To their surprise, they were both following the same workout plan—an unexpected but perfect twist. They exchanged numbers, and just like that, they became gym partners. But what started as a shared workout routine soon blossomed into first dates, sweet moments, and, eventually, the first "I love you." Two years later, after countless adventures, laughter, and growing together, Josie said yes—forever, as Lane’s workout partner for life.
