I have done basically no exercise for the last year but I am going to start. How stupid would it be to sign up for a 50k ultra in July next year?
Depends on your goal: Finishing or running a specific (fast) time but plenty of people do 0 to Marathons on a "near-zero to marathon in 20 weeks" training plan. July gives you a few extra months so getting to that distance shouldn't be a problem (with the right mentality/training/etc).
