You will gain weight as you mature, but post your current nutrition and I will make suggestions...

haha thanks man..by the way i am 5 2 now i just measured ...um lets see...i eat pretty healthy...cereal and fruit for breakfast...or somehting hot like a bagel..for lunch a sandwich with meats and proteins and for dinner like fish, meats (like chicken turkey ham....) with a side dish of like mash pototoes..somehting of that area and veggies. I always drink milk...sometimes very rare soda or lemonade. I also like chocolate milk... that is basically what I eat...i also eat snacks and stuff semi healthy, but never to much.
Cereal and bagels are not healthy.
If you can't catch it, kill it or pick it don't eat it.
Your hormones are starting to be in a place that will make it easy to gain good weight if done properly.
Eat often, but dont overeat. When you eat, eat healthy. The weight will come, trust me. That is assuming your workout program is on point.

I'm 5'7 - 125, and plenty strong. If your 1/2 a foot less than me and 24 lb's less, I dont think you need to gain weight, just gain muscle.
its all about diet...if your commited enough to gaining weight you will change your diet...trying looking up lean bulking diets on the web...youll need to eat around 6 meals a day..a little smaller in size then a normal person eating 3 big meals a day...
...egg whites, english muffin, toast for breakfast (protein/carb meal)...tuna chicken green veggie (protein/fat meal)...chicken and rice bananna and yogurt(protein/carb)...steak cheese carrots (pro/fat meal)...rice cakes apple (pro/carb meal)...yogurt and cottage cheese before bed
if you eat healthy like this and stick to it you will gain
throw in some protein shakes in there with some meals

You have to exercise hard and then this should be stimulating your appetite and then you need to progressively eat more until you get where you want to be. Eat lots of protein, carbs and fats without overloading on any and you will gain.
Look towards eating 2 bowls of cereal,2 pieces of fruit, glass of milk for breakfast. Lunch should be 3-4 sandwiches,fruit,2glasses of milk. Dinner should be 1/2-3/4 lb. of meat,2 glasses of milk, 2 potatoes (or rice/pasta), 2 veggies. Night snack - 1-2 glasses of milk and a few homemade cookies. This is based on what you wrote. You can add/substitute as needed. I just thought this might give you a better idea of how much food you need to work towards. When you get there, you will not be 101 lb.

BTW, it doesnt even have to be a running workout it can just be like something to keep me healthy 
Aside from just eating more,I would also buy some whey protien and weight gainer(available at any grocery store or health foods store)
Mix 2 scoops of protien,1 scoop of weight gainer,and milk in a blender.
just a suggestion
