For an athlete with a decent cardio "baseline", nine weeks isn't out of the question as long as you're not looking to set any records. I think 11-15 or so is more standard, though.
Disclaimer, also not a distance runner. I do four miles four times a week and am happy with that. I did one 10K and hated it, and started to train for a half marathon but decided it was fricking stupid.
