Presumably the time spent getting out isn't included in the hour - it happens afterwards. But good point.
The danger is that the more imposing the task appears the likelier you are to avoid starting it. (eg. The
shovelglove guy suggests exercising for 14 minutes specifically because it's one minute less than the smallest 'significant' length of time for scheduling purposes).
Perhaps it would be a good idea to set a range : minimum of an hour, but up to 2 hours if you feel like it?
