Timer Counter

So i just need to start a timer counter at a certain interrupt and stop it when i get back in the interrupt service routine. I do not need to output any signal or measure an input signal. just need a clock/counter that keeps time. I pretty much need to measure the timing between 2 events. I am not sure how to configure the timer? I don't need the IC or OC modes. How do i just start the counter for a timer and stop it (usually before the overflow happens? )without configuring it in PWM output or input modes. I just need to keep time between 2 events.

Thanks!
