No sweat, just start now. 13 miles in two months. Thats 7.5 miles a month. We'll say 2 miles a week, or much less than a mile a day. About the same as walking a dog. Distributed over time, the daunting half marathon becomes managable.
Some people do it in a few hours, quit your bitching.
So? Start running.
Get a pair of Rollerblades. If you can ignore people calling you a faggot, you can build up your endurance quickly without having to have too many sore muscles the next day. After a few days you won't be sore and cam just keep increasing your endurance to the point that you can easily do that run. You might not smash any records, but you'll destroy your co-workers and feel good for your accomplishment.
Why? That will be late November. Not really marathon running season unless you live somewhere without black ice, snow and cyclists and e bike/e scooter faggots, cars and paranoid fruitcakes wandering around or running crashing and sliding through stop signs and red lights.
I get suckered into charity shit. It's how i avoid attending church w/ my wife most the year. I basically do habitat for humanity and some charity shit in the run. Buys my absent seat in the pew all year long.
But in November? Is it a warm climate or some kind of indoor arena? Nobody should run anywhere outside in the winter. That's what treadmills are for.
I'd rather run in winter personally. November in va is pretty ice free most years, like 9/10
nowhere, rva
