Everyone that has said "go for it" wants to see in a wheelchair or with knee replacements.

Mike, most of us could run 13 seven times a week, if finishing is the only goal. Even hobbled, 13 takes a couple of hours at most. You can walk it under 3 hours.

2 months is pushin' it if your not in good shape. I trained 4 months for a full marathon, I started off pretty out of shape. For first two months were really punishing for my back, legs, knees, etc while my body was just trying to get used to running.

I'd run the Ogden half-marathon in May - it's all downhill and you'll have another month to train.
