For such a short run (a few feet - i believe min is 3ft) the impedance isn't that important, you should be fine. But, use T connectors and terminating resistors (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10BASE2 for deets) on both ends of hte cable. You can just solder up a 50ohm resister on a BNC connector. I really loved working with 10base2 back in the day - got good at stripping and crimping BNC connectors on the fly. Sorta miss it :)
