Making Myself Better
“I want to sign up for a half marathon in two weeks but i havent trained for it, and the reason i want to sign up for the half instead of the 10k is because of the time limit. And i've ran/walked a couple 5k's. Should i go for it?”

Honestly, that’s a pretty big jump to try to make in such a short time. It’s a good way to get injured, even if you do walk most of it. You may be able to be fine, but it’s really not worth the risk.

Find a later half and give yourself at least 2 months to train for it.
