80 minutes exercise today

What kind of exercise are you getting?

If I went out for my (otherwise usual) 40 min there and 40 min walk back usual rural walk today, (apart from having been told not to mix with people which I would not) will I be arrested?

Have I missed some kind of gmt mandated time restriction on out doors exercise which would make this indefensible? (if confronted I would say the purported reason is a trip to my local supermarket tho ive no reason whether it is open / stocked so that would not be the principle reason).

I did around 45 mins this morning at 6.30. I'd like to go further for longer but don't want to take the piss. I'm also doing a couple of short workouts on YouTube to break up the day.

I was reading a thread where someone was saying they were taking their dog for 2 half hour walks instead of one 1 hour one cos it wasn't really enough for the dog. There isn't anything about time anywhere though but I could have sworn he said 1 hour, cos I was saying to the husband that 1 hour at the allotment wasn't enough time to get the spuds in.

"Wow, I could have sworn BJ said for an hour. Does no-one else remember him saying this? Really confused. Must be the Mandela effect"
No he didnt say an hour.

He also said today that going outside for exercise is important.

we were out for a cycle ride (very rural area, 4 miles from home) & someone shouted "Only an hour!" as we passed. I wasn't impressed. If she was that bothered about us, why was she out herself? Hymph.

Madness. As if you would.

Exercise is essential to keeping your mind and body in good health.

You can leave your home once a day to walk, run, or cycle.

Stay at least 2 metres apart from anyone else outside.

No mention of time limit that I have seen -for the UK

I run for about an hour 4 times a week and a long run of 2 hours at the weekend. As long as I'm only out the house once a day then this doesn't break the rules
